    The Role

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy your work placement or internship?
  • The placement far exceeded my expectations.

    5/5

  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued by your colleagues?
  • I was treated as a full time employee and the majority of my colleagues were unaware that I was on a placement. I was given key responsibilities and roles with FTSE100 companies.

    5/5

  • 3. To what extent were you given support and guidance by management/your supervisor(s)?
  • The appraisal process in place is very comprehensive and I was assigned a personal appraiser.

    5/5

  • 4. How busy were you on a daily basis?
  • The job roles vary dramatically, so there were days when I was too busy and very slow days. On the whole, the workload was about right.

    4/5

  • 5. How much responsibility were you given during your placement?
  • I was given far more responsibility than I anticipated. I was responsible for large chunks of work and had regular contact with senior clients.

    5/5

  • 6. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and training you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?
  • I have learned incredible amounts during my placement. These will be incredibly in the future, but may not apply so much to my studies.

    4/5

    The Company

  • 7. What was the general atmosphere in your office?
  • The Deloitte offices were a little quiet, but that is because the majority of people work at the client offices, myself included. So it is therefore dependent on the client.

    3/5

  • 8. How well organised was the overall work placement or internship set up?
  • There was a specific Industrial Placement team and many people I knew I could contact if I had any queries.

    5/5

  • 9. In terms of personal training and development, to what extent did the company or firm invest in you?
  • The estimated spend on my training was £40k - £50k over the course of a year. This massively exceeded my expectations and given me a fantastic foundation from which to build my career.

    4/5

  • 11. How appealing are future employment prospects within the organisation?
  • I have every intention of rejoining the firm if given the chance

    5/5

    The Culture

  • 12. Was there a good social scene amongst any fellow placement students/colleagues?
  • The placement students were very much integrated with the 250 new graduate joiners. There was always someone and something to do.

    5/5

  • 13. What was the cost of living and socialising in the area you worked in?
  • I spent Monday-Friday's away from the office, so I had a generous expense allowance which covered the majority of my 'socialising'.

    5/5

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

    5/5

  • 15. Were there many opportunities to get involved in activities outside of work?
  • There were seemingly clubs of all varieties associated with the firm.

    5/5
