Ali Çiçekli, Partner, Audit

I joined Deloitte in January 1998. I worked in the Boston office for two years as part of the exchange program. In retrospect, I feel it was the happiest period of my life. I felt total satisfaction professionally, financially and socially during this time. Living abroad supported my development tremendously. Building a new life in a foreign culture and a city in which you feel like a total alien strengthens you in many ways. You learn to appreciate diversity. It helped me financially as well in the sense that an overseas Masters degree for example can be very costly yet going on a Deloitte assignment you continue to get paid and life continues as normal without any additional burden on you or anyone else. In terms of the value add to my career, I can say that having worked 2 years in a major city like Boston helped me to take a step ahead. I came back to Turkey as a professional who proved his knowledge and skills and who is accepted with much more ease. If I was offered to do it again for another 2 years, I would happily accept it in a blink with no hesitation.
