Spring Into Deloitte Review

I enjoyed the course very much - the people were very friendly and the food and accommodation (all provided free) were excellent. The sessions were all both interesting and enjoyable. I felt it gave me a great opportunity to continue my career and I am definitely much more likely to apply to Deloitte after this programme.

All the staff made me feel very valued, treating me as an equal and a valued client. Every interaction I had was a positive one and the sessions all taught me valuable lessons which I am sure will come in very useful in the future.

I met with a variety of employees of the firm who worked at all levels of the hierarchy. This allowed a range of advice which guided and helped me in many areas of my development. I am very happy with both the amount and the quality of the guidance I received from each sector of the company.

I feel I received a real boost to my chances of gainful employment due to this course, from the interview advice to the session on body language to the business games which allowed me a greater insight into each area of the company. My career now seems in much safer hands and I am grateful to everyone who helped on this scheme.

Over the two days we participated in a variety of business games, a session on how to project the right body language, a mock interview as well as several presentations on different areas of the business and a networking supper at the hotel. The structure helped by allowing each part to build on the last, allowing me to derive the maximum information and enjoyment.

There was a real atmosphere of camaraderie throughout the visit, due in no small part to the employees who led the sessions and my fellow students who were doing the course. I felt relaxed and happy throughout which allowed me to more fully appreciate and understand the sessions. A good job all round.

The firm clearly devoted a lot of time, money and talent towards this course which shows the excellent attitude they have with regards to nurturing development at the pre-graduation level. I felt my every need was taken care of and they were really trying to make the scheme succeed.

Many and varied employees gave detailed presentations on the work and expectations of each of the main parts of the business. I was able for the first time to understand fully the experience of a full time worker at Deloitte and this made me very excited for any future interactions I will have with them.

I definitely feel as if I have a better grasp of the company's culture after attending the programme. The networking supper in particular helped me grasp the ins and outs of life there in a more informal setting.

I definitely have a much better idea of what I want to do with my career after attending all the sessions provided. Each aspect was skilfully explained so that I understood more fully the role of each part of the company. I am also inspired to perform further research of my own into certain fields of study as a result.

There was a simple expense form which allowed me to reclaim travel expenses. Additionally all food, drinks and accommodation including internet access was covered, which was very generous. I have no complaints in this regard.

There were several opportunities to meet the employees of the firm, including the networking supper and several breaks over the two days. They each felt very approachable and were willing to talk about any aspect of work and life at the company.

Although it was only a short course, there were plenty of opportunities to network in a social setting. The interactions I had were very valuable in helping me decide which sector to go into as I received a deeper insight into the life and culture of the company which it would be hard to get anywhere else.

The employees told us about certain social aspects of the corporate life and activities outside of work. I was very interested in this and wished there were more opportunities of this nature.

Overall I was extremely satisfied with the course in general. I feel strongly that Deloitte would be a great place to work and I recommend this course to anyone interested in a career in this sector. I commend the people who run this course.
