    The Role

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy your work placement or internship?

    • I came away from the placement feeling very proud of my year and I am very much looking forward to going back.

    5/5
  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued by your colleagues?

    • Nearly everyone I worked with was very welcoming and treated me with respect even though I was so much younger and less experienced.

    4/5
  • 3. To what extent were you given support and guidance by management/your supervisor(s)?

    • At EY you get assigned a Counsellor who are your point of call if you are struggling. I never really had to use mine for help however, because each manager I had on a new project were all really supportive.

    5/5
  • 4. How busy were you on a daily basis?

    • There were only a handful of times that I was 'bored.' And I rarely was too busy that I couldn't cope.

    4/5
  • 5. How much responsibility were you given during your placement?

    • The responsibility I was given grew as the year went on. By the end, I was given tasks to complete by myself and to create documents specifically for the client.

    4/5
  • 6. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and training you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?

    • I received lots of training, I learnt extensively on programmes such as Excel and I developed many skills to take forward with me in the future.

    5/5

    The Company

  • 8. How well organised was the overall work placement or internship set up?

    • Never had any admin or HR problems.

    5/5
  • 9. In terms of personal training and development, to what extent did the company or firm invest in you?

    • The investment will continue much more when I come back to complete my Chartered Accountant qualification.

    5/5

    The Culture

  • 12. Was there a good social scene amongst any fellow placement students/colleagues?

    • Loads of us were in the UK and there was something going on pretty much every week either with them or with fellow colleagues.

    5/5
  • 13. What was the cost of living and socialising in the area you worked in?

    • London is obviously expensive but we were paid enough.

    3/5
