Internship Review at Accenture

The Role

Role Description

Performed anlytical jobs looking at market sizing and future plans to maximise profits. Competitor analysisi and company anlytics were central to the role. In house projects to aid in the tracking of oportunities the the conveying of key information to the senior managers also took a large percentage of my time.
