Analyst Review

I really enjoyed my internship. Although the work was slow at first, it picked up, and the social side was fantastic. Great culture and people at Accenture

I was in a small team so felt very valued, especially considering the short period that I was there as part of the internship.

The review process was well put together, particularly for a short internship, so feedback and advice was forthcoming. Management were very supportive and encouraged us to do well, and rewarded good work with more challenging and interesting tasks

Work was slow at first however did pick up as the weeks went on.

As the weeks went on I was given increasing responsibility. I was working with the Client from the start and was doing work that other analysts on the team were also completing

The skills developed and training received were very much 'on the job' for the 7weeks on project, which built skills for working on that particular project, Client, and more generally, working for Accenture and as a Consultant. There was also an initial week of general training which encompassed presentation skills, Q&A sessions etc, which I feel were more useful for University and going into the 3rd year of our degrees.

The atmosphere was very friendly on Client site and in the Accenture's own offices.

The internship was very well organised. The training week comprised of multiple networking events and training, as well as challenges which enabled us to socialise with one another and build the necessary skills. They also made it very clear what was expected of us and what we needed to do to get an offer to return to Accenture as a graduate. Once on project the organisation was based more on the individual manager, although the review process was well run.

Accenture invested a lot in us in terms of training, experience and networking events - I was highly impressed.

From the start we were made aware that our performance during the internship could lead to a graduate offer.

The social scene amongst the interns was one of the best aspects of the internship - they encouraged networking between the interns and the wider business.

I was in a relatively low cost area although each Friday I was in London - so a mix.

I was based in a city outside of London so the nightlife was fantastic. I was in London each Friday so again, great nightlife.

There were a number of societites and socials to get involved in, and the culture at Accenture is very much to attend as many as possible - it's definitely a fun place to work!
