The Role
It was really enjoyable, everyone was lovely and we were made to feel really welcome- everyone looked after us to ensure we wernt struggliong with the work and that was really appreciated
All the people I worked with were really nice and friendly and they were really grateful to me for helping them out even though it was my job! So I can't fault the other people at all!
We were given plenty of support and guidance, including a coordinator and a buddy, however some of the training in my department was a bit confusing and I needed to ask more questions before i understood it
There was most of the time plenty of things for me to do, however, there would occasionally be quieter points in the day when we were waiting on information from clients before i could proceed with my work
Considering I was only on an internship, I was given enough responsibility for my own work, however I was never left alone and there was always someone on hand to answer any questions that i had
A lot- what I did on the internship I will use at university and in the world of work. This could be back at this firm or anywhere else really.
The Company
It was generally fun and although we were busy working there was often conversation and everyone was really friendly. It was a lot more informal and friendly than I expected
My locations and what I was scheduled to do tended to change at the last minute quite often, and I had difficuilties getting my computer system and online access to work at the start. Otherwise it was ok.
A lot- we had training at the start of the event and we also had the opportunity to participate in plenty of online learning tasks, which were detailed and helpful
We were constantly given the opportunity to improve our performance through regular feedback and we were all fast tracked to a partner interview
The Culture
Excellent - since Deloitte organised several social events such as lunch and drinks, and us interns also organised events amongst ourselves
London prices!!
Good- I am from London anyway so for me it was not a change, but the other interns from further away liked it too
yes- although I did not, I was asked to participate in a department sprts event that was happening diuring my placement
