The Role
I really enjoyed the balance of complexity but sense of achievement when I succeeded
I felt like a crucial part of the team, especially when i was asked to stay longer after the internship.
People were on hand.
sometimes the systems were down which reduced work.
I was given many management roles which i enjoyed greatly and was grateful for the opportunity to try.
The skills related to websites and the systems behind them will be invaluable.
The Company
Very high pressured due to go live being very close but my team were fantastic.
I felt we could have been told much sooner and after speaking to the team on placement they wanted to know about us alot sooner too.
I feel like from a non-technology background accenture invested a lot in me and saw a logical brain willing to learn.
National Travel
Working from home
I hope to start after university.
The Culture
There were lots of activities as an out of town project.
Very low.
Not great but the people made it work.
I did many things, among trampolining for team bonding!
