Internship Review at Deloitte

The Role

Role Description

I spent my time in Tax for 3 weeks and then Audit for 3 weeks.
I had to carry out 2 presentations (none to clients though), get involved in auditing on client sites, attend client meetings, get involved in real live Deloitte work.

Other Information

12. Was there a good social scene amongst any fellow placement students/colleagues?

★★★★★★★☆☆☆

Rated 7/10

Deloitte organised socials for the Summer Vacation Scheme students which were fun but we did not organise anything off our own backs.

13. What was the cost of living and socialising in the area you worked in?

★★★★★★☆☆☆☆

Rated 6/10

I lived at home so no money needed for living. Going out in the area was also relatively cheap.

14. What was the Nightlife like in the area you worked?

★★☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆

Rated 2/10

The town had about 2 clubs and we never felt the need to step foot in them once. The most nightlife the town had was a few pubs, which were ok.

15. Were there many opportunities to get involved in activities outside of work?

★★★★★★★☆☆☆

Rated 7/10

Always had emails through inviting us to things but as it was only a summer internship, we did not have the chance to get involved in much.

In addition to these questions, is there any extra information you would like to leave about your experiences on your work placement that other students may be interested in?

Overall a great firm to get involved in!
