SHINE Marketing Excellence Intern

What I liked

I loved how I was fully immersed into the team, even though the internship was remote. Being able to engage with multiple leaders helped me understand how the company operates and how I can make a direct impact.

Business Technology Analyst Summer Scholar

May - August 2017 • Philadelphia, PA

What I liked

I really enjoyed Deloitte's professional-yet-relaxed corporate culture and their dedication to work-life balance. It was always fun and easy to meet new people and build relationships throughout the company whether I was at my client site, my home office in Philadelphia, or at internal networking events. I met some great people who I look forward to working with next year. Additionally, and I know it might be minor, but I was always happy with the speed and clarity of Deloitte's travel arrangements and reimbursements.

What I wish was different

Honestly, I don't think I'd change anything about my experience. I wish I didn't have to come back to school.

Advice

Work hard and remember to build relationships with the people around you. If you find yourself with some free time, always ask if there's something else you can help someone with.

Go in with an open mind - you never know what project you will get but they’re all great!

Audit & Assurance Intern

June - August 2018 • Los Angeles, CA

What I liked

Coming back for my second internship with Deloitte, I really liked going back to Deloitte University because I was able to reconnect, build, and expand my network of students and professionals. I also enjoyed experiencing a two-week rotation in Deloitte's Mergers and Acquisitions Advisory practice. My internship with Deloitte taught me the importance of building your network and technical skills to use as a leverage to be a part of the projects and clients you want to be a part of .

What I wish was different

While I had great experiences in a financial services client and a consumer business client, I wish that I had been able to rotate onto a technology, media, and telecommunications client. The reason I wish this had been different is that I wanted to gain insight on as many of Deloitte's different types of business clients. I believe that knowing early on which industry I want to work on can help me hone in on key skills for that type of client.

Advice

As an intern, if you've never met someone before in the breakroom, social event, professional setting, or anywhere that's related to your internship, introduce yourself and be curious.

Strategy Intern

May - July 2018 • Vienna, Austria

What I liked

I had my own project that I was working on, while I was included in team meetings and had a close relationship to my co-workers, even outside the office. During my project, I got frequent input from the responsible partner and shared a good rapport with him.

What I wish was different

I thought it would have been an interesting experience to enjoy the classical strategy experience, working directly at the clients office, but this way, I got insight into multiple projects and learnt how the organisation better, so both sides have their pro and con.

Advice

I'd say it is important to quickly learn new things and being eager to learn. For me, it was also really helpful to be outgoing and trying to get integrated into the team quickly. Thus, team members were more willing to share their knowledge and lunch breaks were far more enjoyable.

Discovery Intern

June - August 2019 • San Diego, CA

What I liked

I loved that this internship was unique in that it allowed interns to experience two business lines; which in my case was tax and audit and assurance. With this amazing opportunity I was given, I can confidently say that I will enjoy my future working in the tax practice. The Deloitte professionals I met during my internship also contributed to my positive experience immensely as they were very encouraging and supportive throughout my time there.

What I wish was different

Advice

A piece of advice that I would share about this experience is for incoming Discovery Interns. Come into the office or to the client everyday with a positive attitude and the desire to soak up as much information as you can!
