Tax summer intern Review

I enjoyed most days and had a lot of interesting varied work however there were a couple where it was a little repetative/mundane. However most of it was very insightful and the nature of the work kept it interesting aswell as the people being very freindly and good to talk to created a really enjoyable atmosphere

I felt that other collegues in the tax team trusted me to produce work that mattered and was relevant. I also felt that this gave me some responsibility for the work i produced and therefore that my work was values and contributed to the team. Therefore i felt like a valued mamber of the team

I was given a lot of support by my career coach Charlotte and often recieved feedback on my work of what i did well and not so well. This allowed me to act on this improve and recieve more feedback for similiar tasks and show improvement on similiar tasks in future.

It vaired a lot from day to day. Some days i would stay later and work extra time because there were lots of tasks to complete. other days i had a little spare time where i had to spend time requesting work or i completed the work i had with slightly more detail because i had the capacity to do so.

I felt that i was given a moderate amount of responsibility over my placement. This is because there were quite a few tasks which were for clients rather than internal tasks and obiously my work was checked if it was up to scratch would be used for the client. there were also certain tasks i had to do with time constraints that had to be done correctly and therefore there was alot of responsibility on these.

My course isnt relevant to this internship in technical skills as i do engineering however the broader and soft skills developed will help me not just in finishing my degree but also in general. I feel that this internship has taught me valuable skills for my future in academia and career.

Very nice to work in and i it was much nicer than i had expected it to be. It was full of very firendly people who were great to talk to and always really supportive if i had any questions or needed any help they would always help me and teach me improving my experience

At the beginning it was very well organised however once starting work in the office it was slightly less organised and was left up to me to find and do work myself mostly however i feel this is representative of what the job is lik ein reality so think this was a good experience

Lots from staff but no fromal training

Havent recieved an offer yet but hope to

I was the only tax intern in my office so there were no other students my age to talk to however there were lots of very firendly peoiple to talk to inside and outside of work. thereofee i feel there is a reasnable social scene as there are lots of nice people

I lived at home but socialising is quite expensive

poor

yes but not as much as full itme staff
