Studying A level Business has helped me immensely in developing my commercial awareness and understanding of how businesses operate.
This was crucial in allowing me to be confident in interviews for the Commercial Law internships and work experience opportunities I applied for during my time at Carmel.
Studying A Level Business has offered me a chance to know about how a business works in every aspect.
Teachers in Carmel have provided a lot of support and guidance to ensure that we have well rounded knowledge for all the topics so that we are confident and ready for our exams.
“The support of my tutors, personal tutor and careers team provided me with invaluable advice and guidance. I am grateful for the lifelong friends I made during my time at Carmel and the skills and experiences I gained along the way.
“I graduated with a first class honours in International Business from the University of Liverpool. At uni I had the opportunity to study abroad at the Nova Business School in Lisbon, Portugal. Experiencing other cultures and lifestyles has given me a different perspective and allowed me to grow my network, which has been invaluable for my current role. I also applied for work experience at PwC, one of the Big4 professional services firms, on their Women in Business Programme. I shadowed a member of their tax team for a couple of days and following this I was offered an internship in their Manchester tax team.
“I have now taken up a Tax Associate role at PwC in Manchester. I am also currently studying towards the ICAEW ACA qualification to become a Chartered Accountant and Taxation Professional. PwC has definitely given me the opportunity to work on projects with some of the largest companies in the world, as well as network and travel to meet both colleagues and clients.”
