The Role
At times it was very stressful and the hours were very long. However, it was very rewarding.
I got on with all my colleagues really well which made work very enjoyable.
I felt very supported despite how busy my managers/supervisors were on a daily basis.
I was very busy on a daily basis, and given a lot of responsibility. I would say at times I was overfaced with the amount of work I had to do in a tight deadline. But I thrived off the pressure.
I was given an incredible amount of responsibility. Although thise was overwhelming at times, it was also very rewarding.
I believe the skills I've learnt at Accenture to be invaluable.
The Company

It was organised well

Subsidised Canteen
Company Parties/Events
I will soon find out whether I receive an offer for another internship.
The Culture
It was very social.
Socialising was very cheap.
The nightlife could have been better!
There were a reasonable amount
