Enterprise Risk Services Consultant, Deloitte

>> My name is Adeola Ade-Dosumu and I work as an Enterprise Risk Services consultant for Deloitte and Touche. And what I do is I get a better understanding of the client's general IT environment, and from there, I'm able to help them mitigate any IT risk that they might encounter in conducting their day-to-day business transactions. A typical day -- there's no typical day, let me put it that way. Depending on the project, we meet with the client, typically in the mornings, and from that meeting, you know, I go ahead, you know, and turn in whatever deliverables that I need to turn in to my manager. But typically, it's -- you know, it's different processes depending on the project. My employment is pretty much project based, and as such, each project is different, and so a typical day is also different as a result. So basically, within the Enterprise Risk Services you have two different sections: You have the business risk and the technology risk. I typically work within technology risk, and so again, you know, I assess the technology risks while, you know, the business person would, for example, assess their, you know, it's a business risk relating to more, you know, financials and accounting, while I look at the IT infrastructure to make sure that everything -- all the controls are in place. I pretty much don't have a set schedule, and, you know, that was different for me coming out of college. Going into the work environment I thought it was going to be a nine-to-five, but it's typically not. Again, as I mentioned, it's project based, so depending on the project, depending on how long you need to, you know, have that project completed, you often, you know, don't follow the general nine-to-five rule. So it might be, you know, 8 to 7:30. And I do have some projects where it is nine-to-five, but typically, there is no set schedule. It's really flexible. And sometimes you do get to travel. And so, you know, when you're on a travel project, you're typically traveling from Sunday or Monday through Thursday, and so you might have a lot of the hours concentrated in those four days, and you have maybe Friday off or you have to be at the office on Friday. So that's typically what my schedule looks like.
