  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:

    • I was working on audit procedures throughout my placement. This meant completing files, having calls with client or emailing them on queries. I was also on calls with my team for catch-ups and coaching.

  • 2. Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?

    • I learnt new audit procedures and improved my Excel skills. Worked on audit procedures that can be complex so learnt a lot there.

  • 4. How well organised/structured is your programme?

    • I think sometimes the communication as to what we are doing before our placement starts is sometimes unclear. But overall structure of the programme is well organised.

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

    • My team was very willing to coach me. It was just that sometimes they had more pressing concerns so my coaching sessions had to be moved back
