Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
During a engagement, it is likely that you will have a team call at some point in the day. You may also have a client meeting to get further clarification on items or to show them the progress you have made on current tasks. The day-to-day is always changing as a consultant due to the type of engagement you are on and the role you play in that engagement.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
Yes in all of the engagements I was on I had daily responsibilities and tasks that I needed to complete just like any other team member, but also I felt very comfortable asking team members for further clarification if and when I needed it. Everyone was always willing to put 5 minutes aside in their diary and help me.
Please rate how meaningful the work you were doing was

Skills Development
Have you learnt any new skills, or developed your existing skills?
The biggest development I have made over my time with EY is my interpersonal skills, having to converse with team members and clients frequently lets you build confidence, and in my experience team members encourage for you to share your views or ideas.
As for technical skills, I have learnt react and node, things that I had studied briefly during university but diving into a project using them was the best way to truly see how it all works.
