    The Culture

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

    • The placement started with an induction week in Birmingham. This was more of a social task which allowed the interns to get to know each other. There were two socials arranged by the company for me and the other interns, and we also arranged events outside of work at least once a week.

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

    • There were socials organised almost weekly and despite being a summer intern I was still invited along. These were a great opportunity to get to know others in Deloitte that you haven't worked with.
