Assurance Associate Review

Every day is pretty different. It depends on the where we are at for each engagement for clients. One day you could be doing planning, another day you could be filling out work books

For sure! Entering the working world has meant developing my social skills, learning how to communicate with seniors/managers at a high level. In addition, it’s been great in stepping your foot into work

I think it’s a pretty good opportunity. There’s a lot of teaching moments and a lot of independent moments. There’s a balance between studying and working so that’s pretty nice.

Pretty well. As mentioned prior, there’s a a balance and those in senior positions are understanding when the work load is too much or if you want to focus on studies for a while.

They are very understanding and look to ensure we know who to reach out to in times of need/help

A lot! They are available pretty much most of the time in the lead up to exams and while studying for the exam

Having an understanding behind what we do and why helps me to do my job to a better level. It allows me to fill in the gaps and grasp concepts which aren’t so easy if you don’t have a background in it

there’s quite a few professional networking events! It’s up to you to join or even create a new one

Yes

EY has been nothing short of supportive for me so far in this journey. The people I have worked with have had so much patience when dealing with me and knowing when I’m struggling.

Top tips are prepare well for the interview. Be confident and be yourself :)
