Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
5/5
Each day varies. I spend my time working on our Project to ensure things run to plan and tasks are getting completed. I help out team members when needed and I join or facilitate daily or weekly meetings. We have meeting with the clients on regular basis which I join to listen in to.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
5/5
I really enjoy my programme. The work is so varied so could never get boring - every day is different! The team is always on hand to help out if needed and is extremely friendly. Everyone in the company has the culture embedded which means I feel I could go to anybody if I had an issue or needed help with something.
Skills Development
Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
5/5
The number of new skills I have learnt and developed has been amazing. The people at EY are always so keen to give advice, teach you how to do something or show you the way which has helped to bring out my confidence and knowledge so far. EY have given us a variety of training days to help us to develop our skills which have been really useful.
Structure and Support
How well organised/structured is your programme?
5/5
Very well structured. Each week I have time off to focus on my apprenticeship qualifications which is a set time for me to log off. The induction was very well thoughtout especially as it was all virtual. We have been given alot of training into EY which has been extremely insightful. There is so much support - when I first joined I was given a 'buddy' who was one of my peers who had been at the company for 2 years and a mentor who we have weekly meetings with who is someone with alot of experience.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
5/5
There is so much support from EY. When you first join you are given a manager and a buddy to support your transition into the company. You meet with them weekly and they are always on hand to provide you with advice or some help when you need them to.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
5/5
Kaplan give a lot of support. I completed my first exam last month and Kaplan had provided us with interactive lessons with a Talent Coach and regular check ins to ensure we were happy with everything and did not need any further support. The people I have worked with from Kaplan have been very friendly and approachable.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
5/5
It provides with a wide range of knowledge that I can implement in to my day to day role at EY. It has given me techniques to deal with time management and how to deal with complaints. It has made me feel more confident and knowledgable in my day to day tasks.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
5/5
As I have joined virtually, I know EY have lots of extra curricular activities to get involved with but have not seen many of them. However, each friday my team has a social which we take in turns to host, there are various sports teams and there is a charity which I have got involved with which helps students learn about EY.
Recommendations & Advice
Would you recommend EY to a friend?
Yes
Why?
It has been a really good and insightful experience so far. I have enjoyed every day and look forward to the next. Every one here is so approachable and friendly and are always on hand if you need anything at all. They provide you with a really good grounding to excel .
What tips or advice would you give to others applying to EY?
Be yourself. Don't stick to a script, just say whatever you are feeling or what you would actually do in certain situations they ask. They appreciate honesty and can really tell if you are just saying something becuase you believe that it would just sound good. Also be confident
