Career Starters - Northern Ireland

Looking for an alternative to university? Discover this two-day insight programme in Northern Ireland and begin mapping your career journey.  

What is the Career Starters Programme?

This is your chance to get on-the-job experience, network with EY colleagues in Northern Ireland and learn more about what our Business Apprentices do. You'll get an insight into the dynamic careers on offer at EY — it's the ideal programme if you're not yet sure about your next steps and want to explore your options.

Over two days in August 2024, you'll learn fast and experience what it means to be a valued part of a team of leading professionals, helping make a difference for our clients and their businesses. You'll have the opportunity to talk to our apprentices and liaise with colleagues on the EY Business Apprenticeship to see if you would like to follow the same route.

You will:

• See what it's like to work in a global professional services firm
• You’ll learn about EY’s approach to inclusivity, sustainability, and technology, whilst participating in interactive sessions to learn about the culture of EY
• You’ll explore our different business areas and experience what it’s like to begin building a career with impact as an apprentice
• Work with school leavers who are completing the EY Business Apprenticeship and have the opportunity to ask questions about their experiences
• Take part in skills development workshops on topics such as presenting and writing skills to help prepare you for your career

What are the benefits?

As well as meeting current apprentices, you'll also gain an insight into the work we do and begin to develop the skills you need to thrive in a successful career. Most students who complete the Career Starters programme secure a place on our three-year EY Business Apprenticeship, which is equivalent to a master's degree.
