Grant Thornton School Leaver

Just been told I've been advanced to the final stage of the Grant Thornton school leaver programme for Public Sector Audit. The experience day is on Thursday 18th October in Leeds if anybody else on here is attending that

Is there anybody who has done this before either with school leaver or graduate and able to give a slightly more detailed overview of the day? i.e who the interview is with (partner or manager), roughly what the group exercise involves, and any tips they have?
Thanks greatly in advance

hi. could you plesse tell me about the video interview

How’s the school leaver programme so far, I’ve applied to the January one 2022 and I’m waiting to hear back.

That’s good, but I was told that if you don’t have a degree that like you’d less likely be chosen to be promoted over someone who has a degree.

Hi, I just got another email from Gt talking about a virtual experience day. It says that we’ll be doing group tasks and working over zoom. Could you give me any tips or pointers for this day?

Not too difficult, plenty of help available & you get coached through everything in your first year. Can’t speak for London as I’m based in Leeds but I was doing audit work from day 1, reconciliations, sample testing etc. just about to go into year 3 now and will be in charging audits next year, so quite a steep learning curve. Future career prospects depends on team & region but most promotions are quite timely (if you push can be director in your early 30s, there’s a partner in her early 40s in Leeds). Good luck

Hi, I’m doing this in a couple of days and I was wondering what it was like / what to expect? Also how long did it take? Mine starts at 9:30 so what time should I expect to finish?

Had my Assessment centre recently, and I was just wondering how long everyone's interviews lasted and how many qs you guys were asked?
