Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
4/5
I manage and update pipeline reports for a variety of banking accounts. This ensures sales will be met on time and target. I make regular updates to the pipeline to ensure we're getting the most out of the proposed work.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
4/5
I like my programme a lot.

Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
4/5
Yes, I learn new skills everyday, and continue to use these skills throughout my work.
Structure and Support
How well organised/structured is your programme?
3/5
Fairly organised. There have a been a lot of bumps in the road though, although I think things have improved within the past 2 months.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
3/5
A lot. We have regular calls with the Apprentice lead.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
3/5
A lot. We have a call with our training provider every 6 weeks and they're always there for a quick call/email.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
3/5
My qualification doesnt have anything to do with my day to day role, which can be looked at as both a positive and negative.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
3/5
Yes there are plenty of side of desk activities and opportunities to get involved in.
Recommendations & Advice
Would you recommend Accenture to a friend?
Yes
Why?
It's amazing to be able to do a degree apprenticeship whilst also working full time and getting on the job experience.
What tips or advice would you give to others applying to Accenture?
Use your time wisely! It's very hard studying for a full time degree and also working, so you need to be organised with your time.
