Learn what a consulting career is really like while you are still in school with an internship at Accenture. As an intern, you will have first-hand exposure to the roles and responsibilities of an entry-level analyst. Internships last for approximately six weeks. During that time you’ll help develop information systems and approaches that help our clients achieve high performance.

Our intention is to give our summer interns an idea of what life in Accenture is really like. Lasting from June to August of each year, the program starts with an introduction that will give you a solid grounding in business and technology consultancy, as well as valuable commercial skills. Throughout the summer you will work in a project team and be assigned a "buddy" who will be there to provide help whenever you need it.

It’s important to us that our interns enjoy their time working with us at the Oslo office. That’s why we arrange social events throughout the summer. Our interns have participated in activities ranging from barbecues to events arranged by Save the Children.

Our summer interns are an integral part of Accenture, and their work adds real value to our business. Our interns are organized into project groups and each group is responsible for completing their project by the end of summer. Examples of summer internship work in the past include:

• Usability analysis of a B2B e-commerce solution.

• Next-generation workplace analysis and concept development.

• Platform development for aggregating services to the “Digital Home”

• Strategy project for a charity organization.

These, and many projects previous summer interns have contributed to, are being used today!
