The email activity is about time management and prioritisation - you need to be able to make decisions quickly and justify them.

Is the email an in-tray or e-tray activity?

Do we need to understand any technical accounting jargon for the case study exercise? Thank you for your advice.

You won't be expected to write emails - just to read them & be decisive on what tasks/projects to prioritise

For the case study and email exercise, EY will be assessing us based on the core competencies that the company is looking in the candidates. Am I correct to say so? Thanks again.

Hi, where can we find these 6 key strengths?

Jordan X.

Just want to ask on a recruiter perspective, if it is okay for you. If all candidates on the Experience Day meets all six criteria that EY has set out, will all of them be recruited too? I am keen to understand whether there is any quota that EY imposes for their summer internships.
