Hi Chaoyu, our spring insight programmes are for those in their 1st year of University. Our summer internships are for those in their penultimate year of study (so those graduating in 2022)

And yes, we do offer the chance for summer internship candidates who have performed well during the programme to fast-track to the graduate programme. More details of this would be provided to those completing the programme. Unfortunately cannot give out the percentage of those successful as I do not have that data to hand

Thank you very much! Does the eligibility progressing to graduate programme means that you are going to be a full-time employee in EY?

What do you mean you get fast track to the graduate scheme? Does this mean you still have to go to a assessment centre?How do you do well in an internship? What is considered not doing well in an internship?

Yes Chaoyu, if you were on the graduate programme you would be a full-time employee but you would be under terms and conditions of a training contract (eg, conditional on passing your exams)

Hi Janeesha, some people would automatically get offered a position on the next years grad scheme, however for some programmes you would have to do an assessment centre and graduate programme. These vary based on programme and service line.

May I ask what is gonna happen if I failed to meet the conditions in the graduate programme?

Hi Chaoyu, it depends. You would be expected to work your hardest at university to meet your offer conditions. Each situation would be assessed on a case by case basis though.
