    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
  • It was a virtual day for Discover EY -Women in Assurance. It was for one day and involved keynote speakers, a panel of employees who work at EY and talks from employees and the EY Career's team. It also involved workshops and there was plenty of times for questions to be asked and answered. The day was virtual and really helped me to envision what it would be like to work at EY in the future.


    Skills

  • 2. Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
  • One of the workshops during the day was about how to present yourself online and working on our elevator pitches which was very helpful. Furthermore, the day helped me to improve my team working skills when working with others in a breakout room. The day was focussed on improving our workplace and professional skills rather than academic skills.
