Over the course of three weeks I took part in the multiple team activities such as team building, dragons den and multiple visits to businesses like the BBC Scotland and Barclays Bank before doing a weeks experience in a accounts office within EY
Overall my communication skills were developed a lot aswell as my team working skills as working in a team was a main part of the experience
To be honest the experience was amazing and I would do it again and again if in was given the opportunity
The work experience was organised very well with different activities arranged everyday
