    About You

    5/5

  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued during your time at the company or firm?
  • The amount of support given by the student recruiters and employees were unparalleled. I truly felt that all the staff a helpful, supportive and friendly group of people who really took their time to ensure that we got a good, insightful look at Deloitte and what it has to offer

    5/5

  • 3. How much guidance/support did you receive during the insight?
  • Every employee who we got the opportunity to talk to were always willing to answer our questions in as much detail as possible.

    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 was really interesting to see how specific areas such as Audit and Tax were done in a real-life situation, and it really made me think about how I could apply it to the theoretical aspects of my degree and vice-versa. It was a fun and insightful way to get out of the theoretical knowledge that uni throws at us to see how certain concepts were applicable in a real-life situation. Furthermore, the feedback given during group presentations was superb and could definitely be put into use during group projects at university.

    5/5

    The Company

  • 5. How well structured was the insight?
  • Everything was perfect and we managed to get a really good insight to the main divisions within Deloitte within the short time-frame we had.

    5/5

  • 6. How was the general atmosphere during your insight?
  • Fantastic, everything went smoothly and time went by so fast that I couldn't believe the event was over.

    5/5

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

    0/5

  • 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?
  • Rather than a full-time job, it was more geared toward how we could apply for the summer scheme and get on it. However, since most of the staff that we talked to were on the graduate scheme, we managed to get a really good insight as to what their daily routines were and what we could expect if we got into the graduate scheme.

    5/5

  • 9. How much did the insight help you in understanding the company culture?
  • A lot. There was a whole section dedicated to the competencies that Deloitte looks for during the insight.

    5/5

  • 10. How valuable was the content in helping you to decide on your future career path?
  • Unfortunately each division sold themselves too well that it made it a bit too difficult to decide on a specific career path.

    4/5

    Everything Else

  • 11. Were you paid or reimbursed adequately for this experience?
  • Deloitte fully reimbursed my expenses.


  • 12. Were there opportunities for networking and meeting other employees of the company or firm?
  • A magnificent, informal networking dinner at the Birmingham Marriott Hotel with many of the current employees. It was a great moment to ask any questions with regards to the firm, their experiences, etc. Furthermore there was always a networking session after each division gave their presentations.

    5/5

  • 13. How were the networking/ social event opportunities?
  • Fantastic. Lots of opportunities to network in a very relaxed environment.

    5/5

  • 14. Did you find out about activities that employees can get involved in outside of work?
  • Yes. The wide-variety of activities that employees involve themselves with ranging from football to literature was truly surprising.

    5/5

  • 15. Would you recommend this insight to a friend?
  • Definitely attend this insight if you can. The opportunity to meet other like-minded people who are possibly interested in the same career path as you, and the opportunity to meet the staff at Deloitte is truly unparalleled.
