It differs from placement to placement, but a lot of my work involves working with data and spreadsheets to produce weekly or monthly reports.
Yes I've definitely learnt new skills and also developed my existing skills a lot during my time here already. This includes confidence skills, communication skills, excel and general IT skills and so much more.
I enjoy working at BAE Systems, especially when I'm learning something new which is a lot of the time. I really enjoy the qualification/college side of things because it offers a change from normal day-to-day placement jobs.
From my experience so far I would say it's very organised and structured.
There are so many people that are able to offer you support at BAE Systems, and I am always reminded of that.
Once again, the support is always there.
The college sessions really teach me a lot of important things that I need to know to carry out my role. Researching and writing assignments also helps me to understand things better.
From my experience I haven't seen much of this, but I'm sure there is.
Yes
It's a great place to work, the company treats you really well and the job comes with so many benefits.
Ask questions, try to be confident and push yourself out of your comfort zone. Do things that scare you because at the end of it is where you'll feel most accomplished and rewarded.
