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

Excellent on this front. During our induction week we were given a day's training in Excel, talks on presentation, how to interact with people and teamwork. Accenture are very keen to develop you and the process goes on through your internship with objectives being set and reviewed.

Socials are organised every couple of weeks and are very well attended. the intens are all great fun and really keen to interact. Spending the induction week together helps with this aspect

I was on an out of town project so most of your costs are covered on expenses.
