  • 3. To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
  • I do enjoy the programme however the jump from sixth form to working full time is a huge leap which in turn means sacrifices have to be made. However starting work 5 days a week gives me structure and I am really enjoying it.

  • 4. How well organised/structured is your programme?
  • I think that EY's programme is very structured and organised. As a first year joining a firm with no prior knowledge/ experience the transition was relatively easy and I think the structure to the first few months was very good.
