Trainee Associate Review

In audit, learning the tests of controls and procedures to provide assurance to stakeholders and management of publically listed companies. Whilst working in analytics, helping to develop frameworks to cleanse, wrangle and analyze large datasets.

I have learned lots of new technical skills, particularly on the analytics side.

I really enjoy it, although i feel sometimes the structure is somewhat unclear.

The loose structure is there although sometimes it seems as though this is made up on the hoof a little bit as per needs of the business, which is fine, however this could be communicated more clearly.

There is a counsellor programme in place, and my counsellor has been absolutely fantastic from both a managerial and pastoral perspective.

We are assigned a "Skills Coach" by QA, and whilst we are in lockdown workshops have continued to take place online, although these seem to be less valuable.

I feel overall it will massively benefit however the order in which the modules are taken compared to the structure of my work so far seems disjointed at times.

EY Networks and plenty of social activities.

Yes

Great opportunities, progression, independence. I really like it.

Be honest in the interview.
