I thoroughly enjoyed my placement at Deloitte due to the variety of work that I was able to take part in. You are able to seek your own work to fulfil your interests or alternatively try out new tasks that you may be new to and unfamiliar with. I also enjoyed the social aspect of the job - there are so many other placement students and graduates that you can work and social with which adds to the great atmosphere at the firm. The opportunities to learn and develop new skills are endless - would definitely recommend taking on courses and training.
