Overview of Experience
Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
A two day virtual experience where we received talks from EY employees including senior staff as well as recent graduates detailing their experience of working at the firm as well as their day to day tasks. Also conducted a case study activity where we answered questions relating to global issues.
What was it like understanding all about the business and potential roles available?
It was incredibly useful to learn the pathways available to me for my future, as well as understanding what exactly it is that these jobs entailed.
