The Role
I have really enjoyed my internsjip with Deloitte. I have had a great time and have looked forward to going to work each day.
All colleagues were friendly and welcoming. From my first day to my last day I was included in all conversations and events going on in the office as well as within different groups in the office.
Each week I was given a manager to report to and who gave me work to me. I had 3 managers and they were all very friendly and easily approachable if I required any help.
There was a lot of work however it was all varied and there was never any time I was sat down wondering what to do because I didn't have any work.
Before starting the internship I expected to have a lot of work but expected to be doing general office tasks however I feel I was given a greater amount of responsibily than I expected. For example on my last week I was placed out on a client site on my own! It has been brilliant and felt great having the amount of responsibility I have been given.
Whilst in the next year in will not assist me in my studies however it has confirmed to me that this is the career path I would like to follow. I have developed a vast amount of skills that will come in usefull throughout the next few years.
The Company
Some parts of the office had a better atmosphere than others however overall there is a really great atmosphere
It has been brilliant! From the first day to the last we have had talks, training, presentations, lunches and much more. Everyting was well planned and thought through.
The company sent us to participate in a two day training course at onestudy which was really useful and interesting.
Sports and Social Club
Company Parties/Events
I have loved working with Deloitte and would love to work here again.
The Culture
Whilst we didn't go out as a group very often all fellow students were very nice and we got on well. We were all able to chat to each other and went for lunches together occasionally too
Yes there were weekly sporting events as well as an event at the zoo and a couple of nights out.
