1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:

I have had two different roles; one was working on the deployment team on the Virgin Media Project but currently I am working for The Post Office. With Virgin Media, I was tracking issues and testing and generally helping with the deployment. I had a extremely high level of exposure to the Accenture Leadership and Virgin Media Leadership too. I was given a great deal of responsibility, even leading a 300 device deployment. While on the Post Office, I have been working extremely closely with the client. Making sure that we are meeting their every need.

5. How well organised/structured is your programme?

I believe the training could have been more extensive as I was thrown into the deep end on my first project. However, I quickly adapted and was given a great deal of support from my team.

7. How well does your salary/package meet your costs?

Adequately. However, if I had to relocate to London (we is necessary for the scheme) I don't believe it would have been sufficient. Luckily I was able to live at home while on the internship.
