Analyst Review

I work with clients, modelling their financial statements in excel or reviewing their existing model. It is project-based work.

yes, I have learnt a lot of excel skills, and a lot of accounting knowledge. I have also developed soft skills such as teamwork & communication & attention to detail.

I enjoy the learning, content & materials in my programme. However, the college that delivers our learning (BPP - Portsoken Street) treats us like children, not adults, which is patronizing & frustrating.

The programme is well-structured. Exam dates & college dates are given in advance, and I know what to expect for the next set of exams. The learning is also structured, and the materials are organised well.

My employer understands I have college & that it is important, so they are very understanding.

The ICAS materials are good. However, there was a lot of confusion from ICAS surrounding the new syllabus. They did not give much guidance.

Very well. I believe that it is all relevant and very useful.

Yes, there are sports clubs & social activities constantly. Our team also does things outside of work.

Yes

They have been supportive in my apprenticeship, and they are a lovely firm to work for. I feel happy in my role at EY.

Prepare well for your interviews, be yourself, and if you don't know something, then that's okay!
