Preparation
You’ll need some basic skills to be successful in your Internship, so your first week will be dedicated to training. We’ll equip you with the essentials and help you rapidly develop your capabilities through a series of exercises – including talks and team-building sessions. You’ll then be ready for business, handling tasks similar to those we give to our first-year graduates.
Teaming
As part of a team, you’ll benefit from the knowledge and experience of established professionals. You’ll also gain exposure to a variety of clients and industry sectors. This will give you an insight into the business and a good understanding of life at Ernst & Young.
Meeting leadership
As well as client work, you’ll have the opportunity to meet and perhaps shadow one of our partners. This will give you an idea of where your ambitions can take you. We’re looking to recruit future leaders through our Internships, so this is an opportunity to show us what you’re made of.
Feedback
You want your Internship to be a valuable and challenging experience. So do we, which is why we appoint a counselor to provide regular feedback and guidance. He or she will be your main point of contact during your time with us and will be responsible for helping you develop professionally and personally.
Relationships
You’ll make plenty of contacts and connections during your Internship. To help cement these relationships, we recommend you get involved in the many opportunities and events on offer. You might also choose to become an ambassador for Ernst & Young upon your return to university.
