    The Company

  • 5. How well structured was the insight?
  • My 3 weeks were planned out and timetabled for me befre i even arrived and each client knew when i was going to arrive! however there were times when there was not much work that I was able to complete due to myself being so junior in the job.

  • 6. How was the general atmosphere during your insight?

    4/5

  • 7. In terms of personal training and development, to what extent did the company or firm invest in you?
  • we were given a day and a half of training at the start and the rest we picked up while working on th eclients site. Although more training would have been great so we were able to undertake higher leveled jobs, as the placement was only 3 weeks, it was good that we go so much exposure to the clients.

  • Working with employeed from all different levels meant that I was able to see the roles that each fo the defferent members of the team undertakes and what it would envolve working there permenantly.

    5/5

  • 9. How much did the insight help you in understanding the company culture?
  • The company as a whole is very hard working, however while working there I was able to see that people are hard working while at work so they are able to spent their weekends away from work. At Deloitte, each intake yeargroup all seem to be very much a group of friends, and wile at college many people I spoke to have said it is like an extension of university life.
