I studied Energy Engineering at Politecnico di Milano.

I’m brave and passionate, and say “yes” to every new adventure, and so I decided to apply to the Global Case Challenge. It looked like a good opportunity to learn about and work on something completely new.

After the Case Challenge, I joined Accenture Strategy as a Strategy Analyst, something I am delighted about, for a number of reasons:

• I have the opportunity to learn about the latest technology and business trends, that are transforming our world.

• I joined a network of professionals all over the world and in every field. There is always someone that can answer your questions or provide some support at Accenture!

• Flexibility and agility is real here – and that creates opportunities. You need to be ready to pack and take a flight from day one!

Don’t delay, start your Accenture experience with the Global Case Challenge today. You never know where you might end up!

I graduated in business administration and hold a Master in Management from ESCP Europe, and was fortunate to be able to take part in the Accenture Strategy Global Case Challenge. I enjoyed the perfect mix of a challenging case (which was a real client challenge and the winning strategy was really implemented), direct client interaction, meeting inspiring people (both participants from all over the world and the Accenture team), and the amazing trip to London for the finals.

Following the case challenge, I interned with the business, during which I was fully involved in client cases from the very beginning, and worked with supportive and super smart people, as a result of which I was on a steep learning curve from day one. So, at the end of my internship, the decision to join Accenture Strategy as an Analyst was an easy one.

Since I joined the same team that I interned with, things haven’t changed too drastically. I’m still fully involved in client cases from start to finish, and working with smart, supportive people. Now I’m more responsible for my work, and I’m learning even more. The atmosphere is still amazing and we have a lot of community and team events: we recently visited Accenture new Innovation Center in Dublin, The Dock, and we’ll be travelling to Chicago for Strategy College soon. I’m so pleased to be part of this amazing team.

Accenture Strategy, Brazil

I studied Business Administration at Fundação Getulio Vargas, São Paulo, Brazil and applied to the Global Case Challenge 2016, because I thought the chance to work with people from different countries, as well as Accenture leaders, to create a solution with social impact was too good to miss.

It was a great experience! We developed a solution that could really add value for the client and, through the process, the team worked in an environment of collaboration. I didn’t just learn about how strategy consulting works, I also learned about digital technology, as well as issues affecting developing nations, such as poverty and healthcare.

After the Challenge I joined Accenture as an intern. I really enjoyed the internship experience, and so I was delighted to be able to join Accenture Strategy in August 2017, as a Strategy Analyst in Sao Paulo, and start building a career I’m passionate about!
