Overview
Project work is client engagements, and my focus when available - mostly powerpoints or more technical, like PowerBI and UiPath. Whenever I was not on project, I took charge in side-of-desk roles, mostly within the People team. Then, if I still had spare time, I completed learning modules.
Skills
I have learned new technical skills in PowerBI, Alteryx, Python, SQL, Excel, UiPath. I have developed my communication and presentation skills, as well as emotional intelligence.
Responsibilities
Yes, I was given ownership of tasks as I became more confident in my role, and given the chance to take on more if I felt capable
Support & Guidance
There were many channels of communication, a good support system that checked up on me regularly, so I could choose who I felt comfortable to talk to about both work issues and personal issues
Culture
Welcoming, fairly casual compared to what I expected from a big 4 company. Very supportive and people are always looking out for each other and giving encouraging advice
Your Impressions
I enjoyed it quite a lot. I would have liked more time on project, but all the training given was useful and I have learned a lot, and being in such a supportive environment really helped me grow professionally. I also liked that there were many interns, grads and apprentices that joined at the same time so others knew what i was going through
Yes
Be confident in yourself, make sure everyone knows your name. Don't stress about technical skills, they will come with time
