    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
  • First day was virtual with breakouts with the specific business line which were particularly insightful. Second day was in person in the Edinburgh office which provided the opportunity to network with EY employees across all levels of seniority and business lines which was particularly enjoyable and great for building my professional network.

    Business Insight

  • 3. What was it like understanding all about the business and potential roles available?
  • It was very useful to learn about the different business lines and more so the sub business lines within strategy and transactions at EY. It has particularly helped me clarify that in fact it is strategy consulting where my passion lies. Learning about the culture at EY and how willing the people are to help has also confirmed that these is a firm I would love to be a part of.
