My Deloitte intern rhapsody

In the spotlight with our Deloitte Summer Intern, Deloitte Ambassador 2017 and Team Singapore Floorballer Amanda Yeap

Why did you decide to pursue an audit internship?

I have always had a keen interest in audit and I want to learn how I can apply the accounting knowledge I have learned in university to my work.

What was it like to intern at Deloitte?

Interning at Deloitte was enjoyable because of the people, culture and environment. I am grateful to have met colleagues who generously offered their time to guide and support me whenever I had questions about the work assigned.

What did you enjoy most about the internship?

I liked that there were opportunities to get to know other interns and full-timers better on more informal settings such as during firm-wide and departmental events. One of which was the Audit Off-Peak party at Zouk Singapore where I was able to bond with fellow interns while rehearsing for a group dance performance. It was a blast performing that night and this experience left me with fond lasting memories to keep.

What were your key takeaways from the internship?

When in doubt, always be brave and never be afraid to ask questions.

What are your top three tips for interns?

Take the initiative at work, be responsible and enjoy the process!
