  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
  • No day is the same but generally involves partaking in personal taxation advice memo drafting, researching and note taking on client calls.

    9/10

  • 2. Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
  • I had no prior tax knowledge beforehand so everything I learn everyday is new to me. A skill that has been built on is definitely communication skills.

    9/10

  • 3. To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
  • I greatly enjoy my program and would advise anyone interested in accounting to consider Tax as it is often over looked.

    10/10

  • 4. How well organised/structured is your programme?
  • The work side of things is well organised, however, the exam side has been unclear up to present and poorly organised by BPP.

    6/10

  • 5. How much support do you receive from your employer?
  • The use of a councilor and work buddies makes support accessible at all times.

    10/10

  • 6. How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
  • BPP have the support there but aren't very good at portraying this to the apprentices.

    6/10

  • 7. How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
  • I think the Tolley's course and notes, separate to the BPP materials, is much more helpful to the work I am currently doing.

    3/10

  • 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.)
  • Yes, there is lots that goes on and plenty of social opportunities if you want to take them. Or, if you can't find it, make it.

    8/10

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


  • 9b. Why?
  • Very friendly environment in work, which makes the job much nicer.


  • 10. What tips or advice would you give to others applying to EY?
  • Be yourself and express your personality, don't try be someone that you think would work at EY. If EY suits you, the EY staff will see it!
