No achievements in life are the result of singular, private efforts - family, friends and teachers are just as much a part of every success story. However, in those moments where you doubt what you can do, and you worry you're not good enough, and you feel very much alone in your decision; every time you keep going and push yourself further are the moments that you define who you are and what you're capable of. The big secret is that you're capable of anything, you just have to believe it, and then go into the world and act like it!

You must embrace continuous learning as it ensures relevance in a rapidly evolving work landscape. This will allow you to increase your technical expertise and commercial awareness - both pivot to success. By improving your technical expertise, your work will be seen as more accurate and reliable. By increasing your commercial expertise, you will be able to take that one step further and decide which analyses to do at what time and what the output of an analysis actually means for a business. Networking is also extremely useful. There are so many things we don't know we don't know, but just a simple conversation with an experienced individuals can save you years of mistakes. They can provide guidance and deliver a roadmap as they can see the path you need to take when you aren't even aware of the next step.

Putting yourself out there can feel uncomfortable, but that’s where growth happens. It’s easy to stick with what you know, but stepping into the unknown is how you learn and expand your skills. For example, when I applied for the EY Degree Apprenticeship, I was nervous about putting myself in such a competitive environment. But the challenge of the application process pushed me to improve my skills, prepare thoroughly, and stay focused. While it was tough at times, the sense of achievement when I received the offer was unforgettable. Overcoming challenges like that builds confidence and shows you what you’re capable of. The more you embrace discomfort, the more you realize how much you can grow.

Having joined EY straight from school, my willingness to learn has been instrumental in shaping my professional journey. It has allowed me to embrace new challenges with enthusiasm and curiosity, rather than fear or hesitation. This eagerness to learn has not only helped me to quickly pick up necessary skills and knowledge for my role, but has also shown to my colleagues that I am adaptable, have a growth mindset, and I am committed to delivering to the best of my ability. Remember, as an apprentice you are not expected to know all the answers, so don't be afraid to ask lots of questions and keep learning!
