  • 4. How well organised/structured is your programme?
  • The program is well structured starting with a lot of training and becoming more like a typical job after that. My training is mostly booked for me and I just need to ensure I show up and do well. The job itself is well organised and I am kept informed on what I should be doing

  • 5. How much support do you receive from your employer?

  • 7. How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
  • The qualification has been useful however I did ALevel accounting before this role so I have not learned much more so far. However the VAT exam taught me a lot and I have felt the benefit of refreshing myself of the more complex items so far. It has helped support

  • 8. Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
  • There are always lots of socials to take part in. So far we have done golf, pizza making, meals out, snooker and there are more to come. These are always fun and help the whole office get to know one another which improves how well we can work together on jobs

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


  • 9b. Why?
  • They are kind and supportive and help settle you in. Everyone has been in your position with most of the staff having done the programme. This means they all understand that you'll be asking lots of questions and it makes you feel better and settle in faster. Its fun


  • 10. What tips or advice would you give to others applying to RSM?
  • It's hard, be prepared, be ready to fight for the role. They only hire the best and when you are in you have to be on your top form as much as you can. They also are ready to help. Everyone is kind and dont be scared. Its fun
