A lovely lunch was provided with good quality food and lots of it which was nice but there wasn’t enough people who attended so eating it was awkward and conversation was stunted. I was the only A Level participant as the others were all university level ...
Hard work, helpful and friendly colleagues who were more than happy to assist when struggling. Did lack variety in places - often sat down in front of a computer for many hours. Enjoyable visiting client sites and interacting with them to get the informat...

I really enjoyed the insight day and greatly appreciate all the effort that was made by the Manchester team and Alicja. I travelled from Glasgow for the event and was unsure of what to expect from the day, I now feel much more confident about the recruitm...
I really enjoyed this insight.
Very enjoy and I have more understanding about BDO and its recruitment process.

Overall it was an enjoyable experience. I particularly enjoyed hearing from the employees at BDO - especially about Forensic Accountancy and the format was good. There was some waiting occasionally after finishing tasks or sessions, time that could have b...
It gave me a flavour of what life is like as an "accountant". I was thinking about applying for Audit, in order to specialise in Forensic Services, and the day gave me the process I would need to go through in order to achieve my goal. It was very enjoyab...
