I’m starting my 3 year training contract at EY next month. I really have an interest in moving into the banking/private equity space after my 3 years. Can anyone provide me with advice on what I should be doing while auditing to help make that transition when I’m done
Eg. Courses i should be doing , industries i should audit etc.

Hi All, just sharing what on mind to vent it out from my system. Maybe with this I could gain some insights and inspiration.
I have been working as a data scientist since 2018 & have been the bread winner. I have neither been under a proper mentor nor with a team of peers from my field to help me out. I was alone and confused. I have never really got the chance to prove myself which makes me all the more depressed. I'm not sure what to do with my future, indecisive and low on confidence.
