    The Role

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy your work placement or internship?

    • Fantastic placement, hoping I get an offer to return - I'll be straight back!

    5/5
  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued by your colleagues?

    • In my first few weeks I frequently heard "how great the people are at Accenture" - I quickly came to realise how true this was.

    5/5
  • 3. To what extent were you given support and guidance by management/your supervisor(s)?

    • I was given constant support throughout my internship from my direct line managers and HR.

    5/5
  • 4. How busy were you on a daily basis?

    • Its a busy job - not going to lie, but its rewarding and the time flies by.

    4/5
  • 5. How much responsibility were you given during your placement?

    • I was given a huge amount of responsibility, being repsonsible for all the reporting and governance for the project I was working on and dealing with the client on a daily basis.

    5/5
  • 6. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and training you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?

    • Hand on heart I can say that I feel I have learnt more skills that are going to be useful later in life during my year with Accenture then I have at 16 years of school and higher education.

    5/5

    The Company

  • 7. What was the general atmosphere in your office?

    • This is low mainly due to the fact I was not based in the Accenture offices but on client site and so there is less "fun".

    4/5
  • 8. How well organised was the overall work placement or internship set up?

    • Certain areas for improvement that I have submitted to HR - so hopefully they will action these.

    4/5
  • 9. In terms of personal training and development, to what extent did the company or firm invest in you?

    • Good level of training - the real training comes into play once you return for the job.
