Business Analyst Review

Thoroughly enjoyed given the extensive exposure to executive and the interesting work available in different departments and areas.

Different reaction from different individuals. Overall highlighted value by members that sought to help and help me progress throughout my career. Advice and guidance were given by several individuals alongside tangible support and opportunity. Some regarded interns as means to do the ground work but it is good to obtain the experience nonetheless.

Independence is required for a consultant so navigating across the firm is necessary to progress in this area of business. Having stated that, the induction and overall guidance given by HR representatives and staff members was adequate.

Sought to obtain experience in relevant areas by seeking individuals in respective departments and areas. Was successful in obtaining projects in my areas of interest strengthening my industry understanding and technical skills. There is a wealth of resources and training courses available in the firm’s global intranet.

Well-structured in the sense that I was given a project with the industry that I wanted to and was given good exposure within my assignment and opportunity to make a difference. It was then up to me to find other opportunities alongside my project.

Supportive and open individuals overall. Unlikely to have access to executives and leadership stakeholder in another firm. General was left by myself thought but sought to do so to explore other areas. Atmosphere depends on team, project and industry and location (i.e. if you are in client site or in the firm’s headquarters).

There is a wealth of resources that individuals can refer to in the global intranet. The first week consisted in a business case competition which also equipped participants to enhance their core technical (e.g. Excel & Powerpoint) and consulting skills. Personal branding workshops were also provided in this first week.

Well suited to apply for a role within the practice that I desire to start my career at in the firm. Sought individuals in this particular department and they were helpful in providing guidance and support to help me to return aligned to their practice in a full time capacity.

Individuals of different departments and seniorities helped me paint a more complete and realistic picture of what it means to work for the firm.

Extremely valuable as the type of work I did helped me to understand what I would like to explore and not do further in the future.

20k pro rata annually. + 500 london relocation support.

Yes, there were. Individuals were open to meeting and chatting to in practice dinner, summer socials and other networking events. There is no standardise to get invited to those and people need to put themselves forward and chase these opportunities.

Very good. Adequate budget for drinks and food as well. Some of them were in top-end venues and people were friendly and relaxed.

There is an intranet portal and activities proposed at a project, account and practice levels.

Yes. Consulting provides you a view into other industries that no other industry can. The exposure provided by Accenture is unparalleled given its scale.
