    Hi! I had my internship in London but because we were at the peak of the covid outbreak, it was a virtual one that was shorter than the usual 4 weeks. I worked on developing a communication strategy for a music streaming company for their ERP system transformation.

    Wow, that sounds interesting! Thank you. Are all consulting internships at EY for 4 weeks?

    Glad you find it interesting! Besides the actual project, there were quite a few (although virtual) social events where I connected with everyone participating in the internship in all locations - super enjoyable :)

    That's great! Really like the fact that you got an opportunity to meet others :). Any tips for Cover letter, assessment and interviews for consulting summer internship.

    All consulting internships are 4 weeks!For tips, I would suggest trying to show your passion and letting your personality shine through, while thinking about what EY values are when it comes to client service (e.g. being client-centric, 'building a better working world', diversity and inclusion etc) and how these might align with your passion!

    Hi Jane, how many projects do you work on? do you work with different team members for different projects? Do you follow an agile framework?

    I assume this is a question regarding the graduate programme! Usually graduates work on one project at a time, and the length of the projects vary highly (can be a few weeks or 12+ months). The team can have consultants from various service lines/competencies of the business and even locations.I have not personally used the agile framework, but I can imagine it is more relevant in projects led by Innovation & Experience Design and Transformation Delivery service lines

    Hi Jane,
    A follow up question - are there any particular sectors that the London office focuses on for consulting clients?
