    The Role

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy your work placement or internship?
  • I really enjoyed my internship- I didn't think I would be exposed to so much content as I was and it gave me a really good insight as to what actually happens in an audit. Deloitte really looked after us as interns too.

    4/5

  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued by your colleagues?
  • I was treated like a first year graduate so felt part of the team from day 1.

    5/5

  • 3. To what extent were you given support and guidance by management/your supervisor(s)?
  • I was encouraged to ask questions whenever I didn't understand something and I was also given lots of support and guidance in preparing for my partner interview in the final week.

    5/5

  • 4. How busy were you on a daily basis?
  • It varied. Some days I was constantly busy and had to stay a bit late to get work done and other days were a bit slower.

    4/5

  • 5. How much responsibility were you given during your placement?
  • Like I said I was treated like a graduate so was given a lot of responsibility given that I was only there for three weeks.

    4/5

  • 6. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and training you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?
  • I study Accounting and Finance so the content will really help me with my Audit module. The excel skills I have learnt are invaluable and I am much better at networking.

    5/5

    The Company

  • 7. What was the general atmosphere in your office?
  • I spent most of my time at a client so didn't really get to experience the office however when I was there it felt professional but also quite relaxed. Overall it was a fun atmosphere but work was always the no 1 priority.

    4/5

  • 8. How well organised was the overall work placement or internship set up?
  • It definitely had a schedule and was very well set up- I always knew where I would be. The first training day was really well organised as were the socials.

    5/5

  • 9. In terms of personal training and development, to what extent did the company or firm invest in you?
  • We were able to complete online training courses if we wanted and we were given training for the final interview. My colleagues also invested time teaching me key excel skills and audit skills.

    4/5

  • 10. What were the perks on your work placement?
  • Sports and Social Club

    Company Parties/Events

    3/5

  • 11. How appealing are future employment prospects within the organisation?
  • I have got a graduate job with them when I finish University.

    5/5

    The Culture

  • 12. Was there a good social scene amongst any fellow placement students/colleagues?
  • Yes there were always intern drinks organised, whether that was by Deloitte or by the other interns. Everyone was really social.

    5/5

  • 13. What was the cost of living and socialising in the area you worked in?
  • I lived at home but obviously it's London prices so drinks were more expensive than at University.

    3/5

  • 14. What was the Nightlife like in the area you worked?
  • I was based in the City so there were loads of bars and pubs by the office and again it's London so Nightlife is a given.

    5/5

  • 15. Were there many opportunities to get involved in activities outside of work?
  • 3/5
