Overview of Experience
Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
I heard from various professionals within the firm about their respective service lines and I gained a deep understanding of what it is like to work for a best employer! I took part in a sustainability case study, which allowed me to collaborate with my peers. I was able to pose questions and network with people in the firm.
What was it like understanding all about the business and potential roles available?
By hearing from professionals in different service lines, I was able to learn more about roles in which previously I had very little knowledge. I learnt about how the some of the different roles at EY are interconnected.
