Introductions to the wider team and calls with team members to discuss their experiences at Deloitte. Buddy system and check-in with buddy daily who would answer any questions and help with work if needed. Shadowing of a director who would give us work to do and check-in with how we were finding things. Sub-team meetings also. Also intern support from organisers and socials for interns to meet each other.

The culture was very inclusive, there was a strong focus on mental health and their were mindfulness workshops and encouragement to take breaks when needed. There were weekly socials with other interns and then social activities within service lines. Within the company there were groups set up such as the LGBT+ group.

I thoroughly enjoyed my internship, I was given lots of opportunities to learn and chance to carry out meaningful work whilst being included and supported by the team. The company culture was welcoming and seemed like the company cared about employees with the strong focus on wellbeing. It exceeded my expectations, the team made sure that interns experienced as many different aspects as the day-to-day role as possible and made sure that we felt like part of the team. I would go back.
