Overview of Experience

Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
This was a 3 day program which started with an induction. The main program involved shadowing associates and following them through their meetings and understanding what their day-to-day life was like. We also had the opportunity to catch up with other associates through the firm who worked in different areas to gain a holistic perspective about the program.
What was it like understanding all about the business and potential roles available?
It was very helpful because the conversations I had with everyone was very open and honest. I now have the ability to determine whether or not management consultancy is the right line of service for me.
