Real Experiences from Our Interns

“Working as a part of Audit as a Placement is greatly rewarding and interesting. My day-to-day role in the Audit department included contacting banks, meetings with clients, and testing controls. On my Placement, I worked on large but very different Multi-National Companies nearly every week and found that every company can differ.” — Adam Cunningham (UL, Business Studies)
