    7/10

  • 3. To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
  • I enjoyed it to begin with but I lost interest as time went on because I didn't find the content or the tutors very engaging. Blackboard was also a bit chaotic and difficult to navigate because there were too many resources. Lectures were really poor on the whole

    3/10

  • 4. How well organised/structured is your programme?
  • Not great - too many online portals which are complex to use and confusing. Some technical issues

    3/10

  • 5. How much support do you receive from your employer?
  • my employer didn't really know much about what I was studying and there wasn't much application to my role but they gave me enough time off work to complete everything which was good

    6/10

  • 6. How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
  • Lots of support - good to have a skills coach on hand to answer questions and check in with me regularly

  • 7. How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
  • Some content is relevant theoretically but it didn't really align with my role

    4/10

  • 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 but not many people attend them and it's difficult to have a clear view of everything on offer

    6/10

  • 9a. Would you recommend Forvis Mazars to a friend?
  • No


  • 9b. Why?
  • Since I've joined I haven't made much progress in my career and it feels like the firm doesn't know what to do with me - not much structure or opportunities to progress. My team is very remote so not much of a social aspect.


  • 10. What tips or advice would you give to others applying to Forvis Mazars?
  • I would advise them to not apply if they are looking for a sociable company with opportunities to progress quickly. However, it is a decent firm with a solid reputation which provides stability
