Are there any work experience opportunities as tax accountants, or is it all covered in the business academy experience?

Additional information

I am currently in year 12, and I am extremely interested in working for EY in the future. I was looking for some tax accountant work experience, however only the business experience is included. Does this business experience include all types of accounting, or will I have to ask someone inside, like you, for a favour. ;)

Hi Christian! I actually attended the EY Business Academy a few years back. During the Business Academy, you are put into a team for the week and will have the experience to shadow current EY employees. I was fortunate enough to be in tax and so got to experience tax accounting. If tax accounting is your interest, I would recommend mentioning this during the application process.
