Overview
I work as a business consultant, which involves working across various projects. My project was in programme management, where I worked across the integration and data workstreams. Day to day tasks involved putting powerpoints together, doing analysis on power BI and Excel and more general administrative tasks.
Skills
Learnt technical skills on excel, PPT and PowerBI. Learnt lots of communication skills through day to day interactions with team members, and observing how others conduct themselves during working sessions and meetings.
Responsibilities
Yes. I was trusted by the team to take ownership of important tasks and deliverables that were escalated up to the client.
Support & Guidance
I received a good level of support and guidance. Managers were especially helpful. However resourcing (who allocate projects) were not hugely responsive which was difficult
Culture
Great culture, lovely people and great atmosphere to work in. Good mix of fun and work ethic.
Your Impressions
Great learning opportunity - would definitely recommend doing a placement to anyone!
Yes
Be yourself! Also be prepared to wait a long time for a response as this was the case with me.
