I worked with the talent team where My role was to come up with a idea to improve the ey career Instagram page, on my first day I had a look at the Instagram page in order to see what it is doing great and if I find anything standing out, I also looked at several other Instagram pages such as ITV careers and KPMG careers in order to get an insight of what they are doing differently to EY.One's I had all my advantages and disadvantages, I made a plan of what I will be putting on each slide I did this for 2 days, then I researched on what stands out on a social media page, the people within my team really helped me because they gave me a lot of ideas on how I can approach the task and that I wasn't overloaded with work.
One new skill I have learnt was communication, as a teenager I don't speak formally to people and express my opinion without caring about any ones feeling, at ey I learnt how to communicate professionally, I also developmed this skill when asked to give presenation.
I really loved the programme for ones I saw a workplace that was very diverse, I met people with different skills, coming from different religions,race, backround , and culture.I loved knowing about evryones lives and what makes them so unique.
On my first day at Ey i already felt welcomed, it wasn't stange taling to people at all, and i got a lot of really good feedback eevrytime i told someon ewhat i do outside school, i felt respected by everyone around me.
I was suprised how organised the programme was, befroe the prgramme we got an emal of what we are going to do each day, and evrthing went really smoothly and on time.
My training provider was really lovely she helpmed me with what subject to choose in uni and what i will need to focus on my personal stsament she also gave me her contact details for any help i need.
A lot! i was in a amazing group at the end of each day we had regular catchups, where she checked where i was, what i need to add and if i need any help she was also really open to tell me about more ey programms open to me in the future.
Traveling was expensive for me, i felt like at times that i had just about enough money for train, however being provided lunch for the first 2 weeks saved me a lot of money which was really good becuase i didn't need to worry about food and money.
yes! i know that we have the opportunity to attend events after this event.
Yes
