Are there any online sources, apart from the EY website, you would recommend to research about Extended Assurance?

Hi Lewis! Lots of my friends work in Extended Assurance so am happy to answer any questions! I think the best place to research it would be the EY website (from my knowledge!) - extended assurance covers Controls Reporting, SOX reporting, GIPS reporting, annual reporting as opposed to just financial statement assurance!

Let me know if you have any further specific questions!

OK thank you Issy that is very helpful. Do you think it would be useful to connect with some Extended Assurance graduates on LinkedIn and asking them some questions?

Also how technical does an applicant’s knowledge need to be for the final interview stage?

Hi Lewis! What specifically would you like to know?

Hi Lewis - please use LinkedIn to connect with others but we can't provide any names.

I would say the technical knowledge doesn't need to be a lot for assurance! You get all the training you need when you join EY (I knew very little technical things about assurance when I joined) and when you start to complete some exams you'll learn a lot aswell!

Ah ok thank you that’s very helpful
