I have already been offered a role but i have to relocate, does EY offer any recommendations about finding housing or is it just left up to the person?
Congratulations! So I moved to London And it was basically left up to me but you can ask in the offer holder chats, facebook groups etc!
How do I join the offer holder chats, or will that be explained in one of the enboarding meetings?
You'll get an email about all that don't worry! Also when you first join, everything will be run through in the first two weeks or so
Would I not need to sort out this a few months in advance of me joining?
Yes you need to sort accom for an august / september tenancy start, Facebook page should be set up in the first month or so
I personally think it's better to live with friends from school or university, just as a separate social out of work
I don't know many people in Southampton (Where my position is), so would you say it would make sense for me to just look at housing websites and see my options?
Are you a BA or Graduate out of interest?
Graduate And i start in september
Best bet is the facebook groups, especially because the southampton office isnt as big as the london ones. I would also defo recommend getting involved in sports / social events to meet people, opening the opportunity to live with them in the future!
I'm assuming I will be notified when the Facebook groups will be made. And yeh I was planning on joining a couple of sports societies when I get there!
And thank you very much!!!!
