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

    • Very well structured - a number of days were spent on inductions and training and then we were sent out to client sites to start work. There were also a lot of formal and informal socials organised. that was good to get to know the other interns.

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

    • We were given relevant training for our role. We learnt about the ICAEW ACA that Deloitte put their graduates through as well as the ongoing training course that are available through the online portal, and it is safe to say that they invest a lot into their people.

    • Various rooftop bars and great nightlife in London made the evenings and weekends enjoyable.
