The Role
Thoroughly enjoyed the placement but the tax department was fairly quiet when I was there.
I felt much more valued in my second rotation than the first.
Everyone was extremely helpful and willing to answer questions.
Much busier on my second rotation than the first but it depends what work was on at the time, as long as you ask a variety of people you will always have something to do.
I was allowed to sit in on client meetings during my tax rotation. Much more responsibility in RS.
Very helpful insight into the world of work.
The Company
at times very quiet but generally friendly.
very well planned.
A week of inductions before the placement starts.
Subsidised Canteen
Company Parties/Events
Got my final interview in a few days.
The Culture
The induction helped us to bond very quickly. Deloitte organised several events and the students often organised meals or nights out.
Stayed in student house.
the office is located in a great area for socialising.
There were various sports teams.
