Recommendations & Advice

Would you recommend Accenture to a friend?
Yes
Why?
Great company to work for. they look after there employees. I have worked for lots of different companies and Accenture is the best one i am currently working for to be honest.
What tips or advice would you give to others applying to Accenture?
Don't be afraid to contact anyone within Accenture, we all help each other. Don't feel you are alone cause we all go through the same process and no doubt if you stick at it you will get there. They do a GET INTO DIGITAL course which is roughly for 2 weeks and runs throughout the year. I applied for course through the council but there are other charities that can make you aware of this course. This will be the best place to start as it will give you an insight to what Accenture do and see if this is something you would enjoy doing within the company. Always ask for feedback as there is always room for improvement for self development.
