I wasn’t able to track down every single intern or student writer who’s spent time at the Times, but of the 18 I was able to find, all but one was able to participate in this special edition by answering a series of questions I came up with and also submitting some of their favorite photos.

The concluding part of ICAEW’s remote working series picks the brains of two finance professionals who have worked remotely long before COVID-19. What can they teach chartered accountants?
Remote working for the traditional five-day office worker is a huge shift, especially in the short space of time companies transitioned as the pandemic took hold last year. Today’s technology certainly made this changeover a lot smoother, possibly seamless for some. But imagine working remotely three decades ago in a time before Wi-Fi and superfast broadband, where dial-up access was how workers stayed connected. This was the reality of actuarial consultancy OAC, which has been fully remote since 1995.
