At Accenture we want you to be great from day one, whatever your industry and wherever you work. That’s why we’ve created the Essentials Skills Series. Short films giving you career tips and pointers from some of our senior executives, consultants and analysts. The sort of things they wish they’d known when they started out. Skills that will help you get your first step on the career ladder – whether that’s a graduate role or your first internship – and the skills you’ll need when you get there. They’ll help you bridge the gap between university and work. Couple them with our career-boosting schemes – such as internships, placements and Boot Camp – and nothing will be able to stop you.
