    7/10

  • 3. To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
  • I enjoy the overall job but the lack of communication and overall organisation of the programme is not as strong as for other programmes such as the graduate programme.

    3/10

  • 4. How valued do you feel by EY?
  • Very valued and lots of trust is given to school leavers

    6/10

  • 5. How well organised/structured is your programme?
  • Communication overall is not good. Often we do not hear about training events/college dates until the last minute and this is something that we often chase for.

  • 6a. How much support do you receive from your training provider?
  • Often any questions that we have are left unanswered and this is something that the cohort of school leavers as whole sees as a real issue.

  • 6b. How much support do you receive from your employer?
  • Personally I receive a lot of support however from discussion with other school leavers this is not something which is consistent for everyone.

    6/10

  • 7. How well does your salary/package meet your costs?
  • I currently live with my parents so currently this is not an issue however if I were to move out this salary would be a real issue and therefore this is something which is prohibiting me from moving out.

    5/10

  • 8. Are there many opportunities outside of work?
  • There are opportunities out of work but when you're working very long hours these are not things which can be easily attended.

    2/10

  • 9. Would you recommend EY to a friend?
  • Yes


  • 9b. Why?
  • Enjoyable programme but the overall lack of co-ordination and planning of the programme ruins the good factors.


  • 10. What tips or advice would you give to others applying to EY?
  • Be yourself
