Deloitte

Strategy Intern

May - July 2018 • Vienna, Austria

What I liked

I had my own project that I was working on, while I was included in team meetings and had a close relationship to my co-workers, even outside the office. During my project, I got frequent input from the responsible partner and shared a good rapport with him.

What I wish was different

I thought it would have been an interesting experience to enjoy the classical strategy experience, working directly at the clients office, but this way, I got insight into multiple projects and learnt how the organisation better, so both sides have their pro and con.

Advice

I'd say it is important to quickly learn new things and being eager to learn. For me, it was also really helpful to be outgoing and trying to get integrated into the team quickly. Thus, team members were more willing to share their knowledge and lunch breaks were far more enjoyable.

Audit & Assurance Intern

June - August 2018 • Los Angeles, CA

What I liked

Coming back for my second internship with Deloitte, I really liked going back to Deloitte University because I was able to reconnect, build, and expand my network of students and professionals. I also enjoyed experiencing a two-week rotation in Deloitte's Mergers and Acquisitions Advisory practice. My internship with Deloitte taught me the importance of building your network and technical skills to use as a leverage to be a part of the projects and clients you want to be a part of .

What I wish was different

While I had great experiences in a financial services client and a consumer business client, I wish that I had been able to rotate onto a technology, media, and telecommunications client. The reason I wish this had been different is that I wanted to gain insight on as many of Deloitte's different types of business clients. I believe that knowing early on which industry I want to work on can help me hone in on key skills for that type of client.

Advice

As an intern, if you've never met someone before in the breakroom, social event, professional setting, or anywhere that's related to your internship, introduce yourself and be curious.

Be sure to network within your company as much as possible. Even though you already have the job, it is important to meet as many people as possible. Everyone has their own unique, individual experiences.

Business Technology Analyst Summer Scholar

May - August 2017 • Philadelphia, PA

What I liked

I really enjoyed Deloitte's professional-yet-relaxed corporate culture and their dedication to work-life balance. It was always fun and easy to meet new people and build relationships throughout the company whether I was at my client site, my home office in Philadelphia, or at internal networking events. I met some great people who I look forward to working with next year. Additionally, and I know it might be minor, but I was always happy with the speed and clarity of Deloitte's travel arrangements and reimbursements.

What I wish was different

Honestly, I don't think I'd change anything about my experience. I wish I didn't have to come back to school.

Advice

Work hard and remember to build relationships with the people around you. If you find yourself with some free time, always ask if there's something else you can help someone with.

Auditing Intern

July 2020 • Buffalo, NY

What I liked

Deloitte Buffalo is an office that truly cares about their interns and wants to see them succeed. This internship gave me more insight into the accounting world than any class at school ever did. Engagement with the interns ranged from partners to first year staff. I felt I received a very accurate and honest representation of the culture at Deloitte and what it is like to work there. They encouraged the interns to dive right into the work and ask all the questions you could think of. Overall it was a great experience and I am so excited to joint hem full time!

Program Management Offie Intern

July 2020 • Hermitage, TN

What I liked

I was grateful for the opportunity to still have an internship considering the COVID-19 circumstances. I liked the opportunity to have one-on-one virtual coffee chats with professionals as well as virtual training in different platforms.

What I wish was different

I wish the experience could have been in person.

Advice

Take advantage of opportunities to connect with upper management, as it might not be as easy once working full-time. Everyone is there to help you grow and happy to connect to answer any questions and give advice.

Summer Scholar

July 2020 • New York City, NY

What I liked

I liked how the experience was implemented remotely. Although it was only two weeks, I learned so many things about the consulting field and what my career would look like at Deloitte. I like that I got a mentor who was very kind and helped me network with other consultants who had similar interests to me.

What I wish was different

Since this was a unique experience that has never been done before with the pandemic, there isn't anything that I wish was different. The experience provided exceeded my expectations.

Advice

Speak to as many people as you can throughout the internship and network! Especially if you receive and accept a return offer for full-time, knowing more people in the firm will help you in the future if you are looking for a project in a specific field.

What I wish was different

The internship was shortened to 2-weeks and was fully remote due to COVID-19. I wish the experience had been in person but understandable given the time.

Deloitte is all about networking so definitely start networking right away! It will help you get placed on better projects going into full-time.
