So you are all finished your interviews by now and you have had the pleasure of the recruitment lunch and got to meet some of my colleagues here. I am sure that was a good experience for you all and gave you a good feel for the building and the working environment.

The hospitality suite is very impressive and after the gym is probably my favourite part of the building.

As I said in the last post it is all go and that has not changed. I have since been back in Dublin and assigned to a few other projects including a training course for the Investment Management team which I am currently attending.

I am back down to Kilkenny soon for another 2 weeks and then I get to enjoy a nice break in New York and Boston which will take me up to another training course here in the office and then it’s Christmas.

As always, I look forward to the trip to Kilkenny and this coming week will be no different. Great client and a fantastic team makes the job, although challenging, a lot of fun.

Life in the office has not changed too much since last I wrote. I am still on the same job but it is coming near to the end of the audit now so there is a little bit more pressure on. I’ve been liaising with PwC in the Cayman Islands so that always makes things more interesting especially with the time difference!

I have had two Junior Achievement classes so far and they have been great fun. The first class I had was great. The kids were all really interested in what I had to say and very well behaved. The second class did not go as smoothly! Once they realised I was not a teacher they felt they could run rings around me. A class of 30 kids is not as easy to control as it looks! I think I will have to put my cross voice on next week, or maybe I should just stick to the auditing? I will let you know how it goes…..
