The role of an auditor varies within the different periods, as the statement of accounts are provided at a certain month each year, depending on the entity. This also varies between sectors, but auditors generally test the different financial information provided in the statement of accounts to ensure they provide a fair and true representation of the company. This includes gathering evidence of transactions from the client and working a lot with excel!

Honestly, you should just be yourself through out the application process. And reflect on your experiences and what you have learnt from that.

Would you say that doing the EY discovery events would be significant and beneficial to apply for and attend?

Hi Mohammed, the Discover EY event is a great way to learn more about the different programmes and the culture at EY! It also provides an opportunity for you to convert onto another programme afterwards :)

Are there any opportunities for yr 11 students? Also by doing such events would this fast track you to a degree-apprenticeship?

The Career Starters programme is open for Year 11 students! If you complete the Career Starters programme in Year 12 you are able to fast track your application for an apprenticeship the following year :)

The best thing you can do is practice the online assessments! So when you are invited to complete the assessment you will have access to a practice platform called 'preparation plus' - this is the best way to help your application!

What grade do the 3 a-levels have to be at? Also would this live chat be viable to put onto a CV to indicate ive essentially attended small online events?
