Three trainees have joined the South Coast office of Smith & Williamson in Southampton following a rigorous selection process entailing an application, online tests and intensive interviews.
Katie Burden, 19, arrives from Brockenhurst College in the New Forest, maths graduate Abbie Rutherford, 21, from Southampton University, and Gemma Craig, 23, from the University of Bristol, where she was awarded a masters degree in chemistry.
All three will go on to do their ACA qualifications, the first step to becoming a chartered accountant.
Richard Green, Managing Partner at the Southampton office of Smith & Williamson, said: “Our selection process is rigorous because clients rightly expect to have excellent individuals providing market-leading advice which adds value to their own operations.
“Scores of people applied to be among our latest annual intake of trainees, with Katie, Abbie and Gemma leading the field.”
