  • 9a. Would you recommend Arcadis to a friend?
  • Yes


  • 9b. Why?
  • They are providing training in a positive workplace that is full of support to help me progress my career. There is also good work from home opportunities and work life balance. The only negative is that the pay is not the highest compared to similar apprenticeships

  • Make sure to get involved on the assessment day, however, the rest of it is pretty standard for a recruitment process and I would suggest just trying your hardest and doing your research.
