    About You

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy the insight?
  • The internship was great, it was social but it also showed me what the job involved.

    4/5

  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued during your time at the company or firm?
  • My team treated me as a Deloitte graduate so it helped me see how I would be treated within the company when I start working there.

    5/5

  • 3. How much guidance/support did you receive during the insight?
  • Everyone was helpful in explaining my tasks and I was encouraged to ask for help. They took extra time to show me what my work contributed to on a greater scale rather than just telling me about my task. It helped me understand why I was doing the work I was set.

    5/5

  • 4. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and information you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?
  • It helped me secure a place on their graduate scheme.

    5/5

    The Company

  • 5. How well structured was the insight?
  • HR staff is so helpful. We had an induction to introduce us to the company and we also had interview prep during our internship to help us prepare for the final interview.

    4/5

  • 6. How was the general atmosphere during your insight?
  • All team members no matter what position they help were friendly and made me feel comfortable straight away.

    5/5

  • 7. In terms of personal training and development, to what extent did the company or firm invest in you?
  • Everyone took the time to teach you new things even if it would take them less time to do it themselves.

    5/5

  • 8. To what extent did the insight help you to understand what it would be like to have a full time role with the company or firm?
  • I understood the different responsibilities of different levels of staff as teams were mixed.

    5/5

  • 9. How much did the insight help you in understanding the company culture?
  • We even got to attend a department meeting which explained how Indirect Tax had performed in the last year. Informally we found out about what it is like to work there through coffee with our buddies.

    5/5

  • 10. How valuable was the content in helping you to decide on your future career path?
  • I am taking up a graduate role.

    5/5

    Everything Else

  • 11. Were you paid or reimbursed adequately for this experience?
  • I was well paid.


  • 12. Were there opportunities for networking and meeting other employees of the company or firm?
  • There were always drinks after work and colleagues invited you so you got to meet people from different departments even if you didn't work with them.

    5/5

  • 13. How were the networking/ social event opportunities?
  • Social events were organised at the start and end of the internship to help us meet other students on the internship.

    5/5

  • 14. Did you find out about activities that employees can get involved in outside of work?
  • Informally from other workers but it was not advertised anywhere.

    4/5

  • 15. Would you recommend this insight to a friend?
  • Yes, I had no idea what a tax adviser's job involved but know I have a better understanding of how much legal work is done and how much legal knowledge is required. IT's not just compliance work, there is a lot more consulting work.

    5/5
