It involved learning more about BDO and what they do as a business. They taught us about the culture at BDO and the different job opportunities can be given at BDO by completing a apprenticeship. They also showed how doing something in one firm doesn’t mean you just stay there and you are able to move and do different things at BDO
I learnt more about BDO as a company and more about being confident in my decision making and being able to work in a team more comfortable. I also became more confident in interviews and being able to do my presentation at a much better pace. This is what I’ve learned
I enjoyed it a lot as I learnt a lot about BDO and what different thing you can do in accounting. I also enjoyed it as there wasn’t any technical issues making the experience a lot better and much more productive week of learning. Meeting new people made it enjoyable as well
It was very well organised with a set plan for each day which made it more productive. Everything that was needed for the week was given and the links that I needed to use where given before the classes that we joined. They also gave us a book and pen so that we could write what we were learning
I learnt a lot about the culture at BDO and about how everyone is welcome to be who they are there and that they won’t be judged. To work there the culture would be very good as there is a good team cohesion between everyone that works there making it good.
It helped a lot as it showed me what working in accountancy would be like and making it an easier decision to make therefore. This is because it showed me that I wanted to work in accountancy and showed me how working there would be a great experience and would pay well
No i wasn’t it was a week we’re I learned more about the business
Yes there was many opportunities to meet new people which made it very enjoyable . These where in small groups with you working together to do things. These groups would then be changes around so you could meet even more people throughout the week. During lunch you could have one on one meetings with people
Yes
As the experience was very good and it would also help them decide what they want to do in the future and also meet new people. I would also recommend it as it shows what BDO does as a business and what accountancy is like so that they will know if they like it or not
I would give them the advice to be themselves and make the most of the week as it is only a short time and that they shouldn’t feel afraid to ask any sort of question. I would also tell them to be prepared to learn more about BDO and accountancy
