  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
  • On a day to day basis, I will be responsible for certain FSLIs in the audit. This will involve testing different assertions eg.completeness of revenue by selecting samples and sending them to the client. Normally I take work of my seniors with easier tasks.

  • 3. To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
  • I enjoy my programme a lot because there is a good balance between work experience and university experience. We do not have to focus on uni work while on placement, which means you can fully focus on one thing at a time.

  • 4. How well organised/structured is your programme?
  • It is very well structured as you focus on placement while on placement and uni work only while at uni.

  • 5. How much support do you receive from your employer?
  • We get given a career coach who helps if you have any questions while on placement, which makes it easy to initially transition into work. We also get a buddy who plays a similar role.

  • 8. Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
  • There is the odd social event, however Watford is a new office so I haven't seen too much about any sports teams.
