I worked on testing for revenue cut-off, payroll joiners and leavers and property, plant and equipment.
I learned how to document EGAs, use the client communication platform and significantly improved my excel skills.
I haven't finished the programme but I enjoyed everything so far, however as a flying start it takes a bit of time to adjust to working instead of uni lectures.
I believe the programme is well structured but as a suggestion it might be nice to talk to more people I will be working with before the first day in the office.
Everyone was happy to give coaching when I needed it.
The programme is structured to learn all the content at uni and have a three month work placement each year therefore I feel like you have more time to revise than compared to a graduate scheme route.
It provides the technical knowledge required to perform the work and to qualify.
The office has a social pillar which organises activities and events for everyone.
Yes
It's a welcoming environment to work in even without prior experience in audit, or doing accounting before joining the firm.
Show your determination for working in audit and don't feel intimidated if you have no prior knowledge of accounting.
