Manukau Institute of Technology Careers Directory Profiles

I applied to a program called Tuputoa which offers Māori and Pacific Island students internships in the summer which landed me an interview with Deloitte. Since then, I received an offer as a graduate and have now been at Deloitte for 6 months and am loving every second of it.

Aspects of internal business processes are things that my degree has given me background on, so I have supplemented my role, but it’s been more of a learning experience so far.

Some of the most important skills are being able to get on with people, a hunger to learn and being open to new experiences.

The opportunity to work closely with senior executives across a broad range of companies is a fantastic opportunity as a junior and a unique element of this job.

I love that working in Marketing can also mean collaborating with other agencies where you are exposed to new creative and insightful practices. Plus, the occasional working long lunch is always nice.
