Advice from
previous EY vacationers
The biggest takeaway from my EY vacationer experience
is the importance of being open-minded to new
opportunities and experiences. There will be so much to
learn during your time at EY and you can make the most
out of it by putting yourself out there, asking lots of
questions and getting out of your comfort zone. The
collegiate nature of EY means the people around you want
to help you succeed and reach your goals. It’s also the
perfect opportunity to meet inspiring people, from fellow
vacationers to colleagues, who will challenge you to think
smarter and more dynamically each day. Enjoy the
incredible experience!

The best thing about vacation
work for me was the ability to ask
as many questions as I’d like, and
to delve into as many areas of EY
as possible. You’re given the
opportunity to meet a number of
extraordinary people, catch up for
lunches and evening drinks, along
with gaining some valuable
insights from those who have
achieved so much in their careers
to date. Take every opportunity
that is offered, you won’t regret it
once! You’ll not only come out
having shown EY what you’re
truly capable of, but you will have
made some friendships along the
way that will last a lifetime.
“
Nathan MacDonald | Melbourne
The best advice I received during my
internship was to look at the situation
from others’ points of view. Whether
it be a client or colleague, you should
understand why you are completing a
task and what is going to be achieved.
This allows you to add value by going
the extra step and solve the issue
from their perspective rather than
just gathering information. You
should always be looking to make the
lives of other people around you
easier.
