    The Role

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy your work placement or internship?

    • I really enjoyed being a brand ambassador for Deloitte. The placement was the length of an academic year which was just the right amount of time. It fit in well around my studies and I was able to attend careers fairs as well. I thought the Training Day provided by rate my placement was excellent and I developed a lot of new skills with this placement.

  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued by your colleagues?

    • I really enjoyed meetings all the other brand ambassadors and we got on really well on the training day. However as we all went to different universities and worked alone, I did not really see them after that.

  • 3. To what extent were you given support and guidance by management/your supervisor(s)?

    • A lot of guidance was provided by Eileen and the team. We were in contact through Facebook and email and if I had any doubts I could ask her and receive a reply within the day.

  • 4. How busy were you on a daily basis?

    • It varied depending on the campaigns that deloitte were doing at the time - some weeks were a lot busier than others, and some weeks I didn't need to do any promotion.

    • Fairly well organised but there were times when i received leaflets too late in the post so the campaigning was not as effective. This happened a few times.
