Your first few days

When you arrive for our induction course, and meet your future friends and colleagues, you'll need to hit the ground running - but have a lot of fun too. We'll put your professional skills to the test straight away, but also give you the chance to teambuild with a range of exciting physical activities.

Your first few days at Hewitt will be spent on a residential induction programme where you will have the opportunity to meet all the other graduates joining our UK offices at the same time as you. This will give you an invaluable opportunity to build friendships and a support network. For three days you focus on getting to know our business and the services we offer and also on teambuilding, which is a key part of being an associate at Hewitt, as well as having fun.

The days may not be what you expect: this year our graduates participated in some water-based activities including raft building and in previous years there have been teambuilding tasks on a low and high rope course, a climbing wall and tower. These activities quickly help our graduates to develop mutual trust and communicate effectively within their groups.

The senior leadership team of the business also come along to meet the graduates during these first few days (in fact they insist on coming and thoroughly enjoy the opportunity to meet everyone) and the programme culminates in our new associates preparing and delivering a presentation to them. We want you to contribute to our business from day one, and the senior leadership team are genuinely interested to hear your views.

But induction does not end there: for three more weeks you will attend courses and training sessions to help you familiarise yourself with pension schemes and the maths relating to their investments and payments. You'll also learn about our ways of working and the systems and tools we have developed to help you with calculations and information sharing. Your professional study (link to relevant page) programme will then begin.
