What does a typical working day look like?

Hi Amelia! :)

Hi Mia! How are you?

Good thanks, hope you're doing okay! I can definitely say that not every day is the same and that's what makes the job exciting. On a typical day, you can expect to do various tasks, that can include calls/meetings with the client, your team, coaching calls, and performing your own tasks independently. There are some days where you can be busy meetings so the time will fly and others where you can get time to catch up on the work allocated to you. Often the days with more calls/interaction are fun because you don't talk all day about work!

Ok, that's great, thank you! Is there a lot of travel involved/the opportunity for travel (in non-Covid times)?

No worries! Yes so when I joined last year in September (pre-COVID), there was plenty of travelling to keep you busy, particularly when you work in a regional office (i.e. those not in London). Typically, you get assigned to clients for weeks at a time on a certain site, so you'll spend those weeks travelling there and then the next few weeks will be somewhere completely different! Definitely a nice part of the job, so you're not stuck in the same place each day. You also get the chance later down the line to do secondments to other countries for a few months and work for EY there (I know people who have gone to New York!)

That's great! Thank you so much for the insight; your answers have been really helpful!

No problem Amelia! Let us know if you have any more

I will do, thank you, Mia! Have a nice evening

You too :)
