Best Advice for Succeeding Early at Accenture
Hi everyone, I’ll be joining the Technology Analyst Programme at in the next couple of months as a graduate. I’ve seen a lot of mixed opinions on here, especially around the “sink or swim” culture, so I’d really appreciate some practical advice on how to build a successful career early on. Specifically, what should I focus on in my first month, 6 months, and first year to build a strong network, become valuable on projects, set myself up for good opportunities, and prove my value? I’d especially appreciate specific advice rather than general points. For example, not just “build a network”, but how people actually did that successfully at Accenture.
I also don't start for a couple months, is it worth reaching out to people on Linked In asking for some coffee chats before I start?
Thanks!
