Overview of Experience

Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
We had a very insightful introduction to EY and had a panel session where we were able to talk to workers at EY which was good. After this we had a session on interview and assessment centres which was in depth and useful. We also had a case study session which was really engaging as this was alot more active.
