I'm hoping to join the EY tax team as an apprentice in September, so what computer skills would be expected?

Excel*

Hi Manraj
For the tax team as an apprentice there is no requirement for you to know any technologies, however it is useful to know basics of excel

If you are interested in more technologies, once you join you can ask about working on tax technology projects and on those you will pick up skills as required

Again, no tech skills are required for tax but if you are interested it is always useful to learn coding (SQL, Python)

Thanks you Nidhi

So with joining the tax team are there any things you would recommend to make my start smoother

Into the company

As in preparations I should do

Hi Manraj, from what I have gathered from one of my questions regarding something similar, getting used to / understand Excel will be beneficial to give yourself an advantageous start at EY. I am also joining EY this September as an apprentice in the Manchester office. Where are you based?

That's brilliant to hear. I'm going to be based in the London office

Hi both, joining as apprentices in Tax i don't think you should worry too much about pre-learning, youl will be doing a lot of training and learning especially as part of the qualification

All ms products are useful (excel, power point etc.)
