Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
On a day to day basis I was in the office working on tasks from my manager and our intern group project. I had the opportunity to attend weekly team meetings, which were online and organise networking sessions with others.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
I was mostly doing monthly checks, issuing bank transfers, contacting external companies, and was given a larger accounting project to do, alongside the intern group project.
