I was impacted by Deloitte's COVID layoffs. I was a first year so I only have 10 months of experience with Deloitte in audit, I interned with them too. I have a MACC degree
1.What are some good exit opportunities that I can work with given my experience?
2. Should I apply to positions with Deloitte if they just laid me off?

I never understand how someone can be an intern for a firm, hired full-time, and let go shortly after... ive seen this several times with Covid.

That doesnt make any sense

Keep your chin up!

I would connect with your career center on campus. Roles that may he a good fit: staff/senior accountant, financial analyst, etc. It wouldn't hurt to talk to your network about the open roles at deloitte, but does not seem like the best fit.
