Overview of Experience
Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
In the morning we were welcomed by Hannah Jones and had various client sessions, service line learning amongst other insightful activities. The afternoon sessions were more interactive and involved case study work with the office in which you applied to. The internship was very well organised and I thoroughly enjoyed it.
What was it like understanding all about the business and potential roles available?
It was very insightful and interesting to know the various roles/career pathways available at EY. I enjoyed how people oriented EY is as a business and it was clear that all the partners understood the corporate culture and so did junior/senior members of staff.

Skills Development
Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
I have learned to improve my presentation and general interpersonal skills through the case study task.
I have improved my timekeeping skills by following the agenda and making sure i arrived on time etc.
I improved my listening skills as the internship took place virtually so required the ability to stay focused as well as take in lots of information.
