    The Role

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy your work placement or internship?

    • Great variety of tasks, the rotation between two departments has really helped me to find my ideal role within this organisation.

    4/5
  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued by your colleagues?

    • Regardless of seniority, everyone at Deloitte was friendly and I truly feel as though I can work there on a day-to-day basis, which after all was the driving reason behind why I wanted to intern.

    5/5
  • 3. To what extent were you given support and guidance by management/your supervisor(s)?

    • Both my Champions in each department I rotated in facilitated me well, both in the work environment and socially, which truly makes you feel supported.

    4/5
  • 4. How busy were you on a daily basis?

    • I wanted to have a realistic view of what day-to-day life consisted of at the firm and I definitely feel as though I got to experience that.

    5/5
  • 5. How much responsibility were you given during your placement?

    • I worked at both associate level as well as assisting senior management on a project mobilisation. In terms of responsibility this clearly shows that they do not take interns for granted and this is not the kind of internship where you will be making tea and photocopying all day!

    4/5
  • 6. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and training you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?

    • Great interpersonal skills development will surely aid me with networking in the future.

    4/5

    The Company

  • 7. What was the general atmosphere in your office?

    • Great balance of both seriousness coupled with a relaxed environment.

    4/5
  • 8. How well organised was the overall work placement or internship set up?

    • Brilliant co-ordination, especially in my first department, ERS - where there was a clear plan as to which clients I would be at and also the opportunity to shadow a partner became available.

    5/5
  • 9. In terms of personal training and development, to what extent did the company or firm invest in you?

    • Pretty much had the same level of training as a new graduate associate.

    4/5
  • 10. What were the perks on your work placement?

    • Flexi Time

    Subsidised Canteen

    Subsidised/Company Gym

    Company Parties/Events
    4/5
  • 11. How appealing are future employment prospects within the organisation?

    • Brilliant, during this internship Deloitte clearly made it obvious that they value their employees and I suppose this is clearly shown as there is a certain bar that all candidates have to meet in order to meet the firm. Once in, Deloitte seem to be a firm that will definitely cater to one's career ambitions later on.

    5/5

    The Culture

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

    • Weekly lunches paid for plus two socials put on for interns across the whole of Deloitte London.

    5/5
  • 13. What was the cost of living and socialising in the area you worked in?

    • Expensive - London is clearly work hard play hard.

    2/5
  • 14. What was the Nightlife like in the area you worked?

    • London is beyond anywhere else when it comes to Nightlife!

    4/5
  • 15. Were there many opportunities to get involved in activities outside of work?

    • Team building and the opportunity to help out in the community for a day were available for some colleague interns.
