1. Please give an overview of what your virtual experience involved:

Copious work shops were incorporated during the week. This includes learning about the specifics of audit; working on your personal brand; a team work project; a really enjoyable virtual social activity and an interview to conclude the week. The interviewer was extremely pleasant and that really helped calm my nerves!
