Completed a team challenge over the course of the programme - a video pitch suggesting potential growth strategies for a fictional foodservice company, Baked by Kate, as well as service lines of Deloitte that would be able to help
Workshops on commercial awareness, confidence, money management
What was it like understanding all about the business and potential roles available?
We were given lots of material to absorb throughout the programme about the service lines of Deloitte; the opportunity to create marketing material for one of the service lines definitely helped my understanding
