    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
  • I was assigned to an audit client and given various tasks to support the work the team was already doing. Each morning we had a team meeting to discuss what needed doing and there were plenty of people to support me when I needed it.


    Skills

  • 2. Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
  • I was able to learn a lot about how the audit process worked, what it is like to work with a big 4 firm, and improve upon some of my existing excel skills. I also had an opportunity to develop some communication skills as there were various networking events throughout the 4 weeks.
