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

    • I will get booked on an engagement in advance, meet my team and together carry out an audit. This can last anywhere from a week to a months. Day to day carry out more junior tasks, working from the office twice a week and from home thrice.

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

    • Teamwork, technical skills like excel, learning in college towards a professional qualification, communication, project management, leadership

  • 3. To what extent do you enjoy your programme?

    • 6/10. Actual job itself is not riveting. Only get 22 days of annual leave as a trainee. Little study days. However once a month we have half a day for 'Admin.'
