Best Apprenticeship Employer

8.2/10

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

The apprenticeship involves both client-facing as well as internal projects. The major focus is on analytics and its use within professional services. There is no 'standard' day so to speak; daily tasks differ significantly depending on the project one works on. Also, continuous learning is strongly encouraged and it represents a significant part of the EY apprenticeship experience.

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

EY is very vocal in supporting its employees to further develop their skillset. There are many pieces of internal training provided on regular basis and a third-party online course platform is also readily available to all employees at no cost. Overall, I can say that my skills have significantly been enriched by not only industry-specific but also general know-how needed in both professional and personal life.
