I was here for two weeks summer experience, one of my daily tasks was calling and casting financial statements, looking at figures and making sure everything is correct.
I have developed several skills such as communication, as we had to communicate with clients and arrange meetings. I have also developed organisation skills, as I had to take my own responsibility for my work and arranging meetings myself rather than relying on someone else.
I have enjoyed my programme to a large extent, as I have met new people and had different work to do everyday.
very valued as the staff helped me throughout my experience.
very organised, my tasks are given to me at the beginning of the day
a lot of support and guidance with any problems I had, for example using my laptop and finding my way. they have always been positive and made me feel welcome.
a lot of support, I know my daily tasks, they guide me through what to do each day.
they pay for my transport costs and I receive a salary at the end of my experience.
there are many outside work like BDO events in sport and special days.
Yes
very welcoming and friendly working environment, you can ask anything that you want to know about and get support from your managers.
In their interview they should talk about BDO and their values to show that they know a lot about them and also show them that you are keeping up with the news by talking about something that has happened recently.
