    The Company

  • the insight was well structured offering us the chance to learn about all the different services Deloitte offers as well as talking to employees and asking lots of questions. Staying in the hotel was a good way for me to get to know my peers.

    5/5

  • The atmosphere felt very positive! Everyone was eager to get involved, learn and listen! It was friendly as well as offering an insight into a business environment.

    4/5

  • 7. In terms of personal training and development, to what extent did the company or firm invest in you?
  • Deloitte invested in us very generously- we were fortunate enough to have talks from guest speakers and senior members of Deloitte. We stayed in a very nice hotel and were provided with good food and were well looked after.

    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?
  • The insight provided us with knowledge on the different services the firm offers and gave us a brief understanding on the tasks we may undertake in these services. However, in the short time it was hard to have a full awareness as to what a full time role would entail.

    3/5

  • 9. How much did the insight help you in understanding the company culture?
  • The insight helped me to understand the company culture particularly in the Bristol office. However, I think that working in the London office would be very different as there are many more employees. I think that Deloitte certainly values employees and offers them good training opportunities.

    4/5

  • 10. How valuable was the content in helping you to decide on your future career path?
  • The day helped me understand the type of career Deloitte would offer me. However, I think a longer placement would be necessary before deciding a future career path.

    3/5

    1/5
