  • 7. How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?

    • after over 4 years, there has been very little connection between the degree i've achieved and the work I do on a daily basis. Would've have liked to have seen more relevant content, maybe some AWS or Azure learning and also real-world business modules that have relevance to real work

  • 8. Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)

    • yes plenty of things going on, lots of social events, football kick abouts etc so there's ample opportunities to connect if you want to

    8/10
  • 9a. Would you recommend Capgemini to a friend?

  • 9b. Why?

    • Capgemini is an enjoyable place to work, all of my colleagues are great people and always make time for a chat and want to help support me through my career. I've been supported and encourage through 4 promotions in my time which just shows that you can truly develop as fast as you want to

  • 10. What tips or advice would you give to others applying to Capgemini?
