My Internship Experience At Ernst And Young

My Internship Experience At Ernst And Young

The day was 22nd January 2019, and my God I cannot forget this date anytime soon. After pulling an all-nighter I was sleeping in my room that morning and a series of phone calls by my friends woke me up to this, “Guess what? You will be interning for one of the Big-4’s. Yes, you got into Ernst & Young!” What a day it was! I was asked questions regarding finance, risk management, statistics and probability few days back in my interview and finally it was time to apply them in real life. All the efforts that went into that 1-hour interview finally paid off. All thanks to the brilliant and experienced faculties at IFMR-GSB who taught me those concepts.
