Yes! Lots of excel skills as well as soft skills such as working with a team and speaking with senior members of staff

It is as organised as it can be! There are a lot of aspects to your apprenticeship programme such as exams, on the job and off the job training and so on. I think EY do a great job of supporting us.
How much support do you receive from your employer?

I receive a lot of support in terms of study leave and regular feedback meetings where our year of graduates and school leavers can share their opinions on the things they would like to change about our programme.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?

Yes, we have some office wide events as well as small gatherings we organise with our peer group, which is always great fun!
Recommendations & Advice
Would you recommend EY to a friend?
Yes
Why?
I feel like I'm reaching my full potential as I am always encouraged to try harder and learn more. It gives me a great sense of community and responsibility.
What tips or advice would you give to others applying to EY?
Be yourself! Don't be afraid to speak up and connect with others on your experience day. Do share your LinkedIn details at the end of the day to keep in touch, that's how I met one of my good friends who works with me now :)
