EY's Summer Internship was my first step into the business world. I worked on live client deals, met a diverse range of people and utilised sophisticated analytical tools. The skills I gained enabled me to join as a graduate.

Join a supportive and inclusive culture, build your strengths and develop new business skills. Working on client projects, gain insight into our service offerings and become an integral part of our team. We're proud to have won awards for being one of the best companies to work for.
How’s it structured?
Be completely immersed in the world of work at EY. After a company induction, you’ll spend time developing an understanding of Transaction Diligence with a focused training induction. You will then join a project team on a live client project, gaining the same experience and exposure as a new graduate across the different elements of the transaction. You will be supported by a buddy and careers counselling manager as well as meet and network with the rest of the team.
At the end of the internship, there is the opportunity to be fast-tracked into a graduate role after you complete your degree.
The Summer Internship is a great way to get a feel for the job, environment and industry. I gained valuable skills and made wonderful connections. This contributed to me accepting a graduate position after university.
