Potentially joining Deloitte as a senior consultant in the near future and from working in the industry I know how important it is to build a network. In the age of working from home, what’s the best way to do this? Obviously working close with your team and communicating as much as possible but it’s never the same without being there in person. Does anyone have recommendations on how to build a good network from home and outside of you own team?

I find that being personable and effective on apps like Slack is a good way to do it. No, it won't ever be as effective as in-person, but let's not forget in-person has it's own drawbacks. It's good to have chats that don't necessarily deal with work alongside those that do.
