Intern Review

My role was to be an EY intern. Daily tasks involved getting laptop bags every morning and following instructions set by the programme leader. Projects done included ICAEW and Dragons Den pitches. We learnt and developed on many skills including communication and leadership

Coaching, providing feedback and commercial awareness are all new skills I have learned about and it has definitely been worthwhile. Also receiving the Chartered Management Institute Level 2 qualification is something I'm lucky and privileged to have.

Although it's not what I expected, I have met some amazing people with incredible stories and learned so many new things.

Very. When I told teachers about the programme, they were really pleased and I didn't realise how important this programme would be. It's an amazing asset to my CV and never imagine the hard efforts that some EY staff have made to make it memorable.

It was very well organised. The induction was a little boring but the rest was very productive. I enjoyed the independence and dependence activities and also the fact that I have a mentor makes me feel special because I know I have another pair of lens' to help make my future decisions.

Quite a lot. Anything I needed or struggled with was handled very quickly and professionally.

Similar to the training provider. They were very keen to help us make the most of the opportunity and to unlock the potential within ourselves.

Getting the tram isn't cheap but I guess I'll manage although I don't have any source of income so finance is hard at times.

Yes, if you look in the right places, at the right time and ask the right people.

Yes

If they're interested in business and want experience in the world of work, its worthwhile and there is still loads to learn.

Go for it because you never know what opportunities lie behind one door and make the most of it because not everyone has the same opportunity.
