  • 3. To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
  • I like coming in and doing the work at my placement, there have been a few jobs where i haven't enjoyed the work and that makes doing the programme more stressful but overall i just like to do the work and do it well and not worry about anything else

  • 4. How well organised/structured is your programme?
  • It hasn't been very orginised,my most recent placement was very last minute and none of the people i was assigned to knew i was coming, but a lot of the other placements have had some warning even if they get delayed for a while, communication is also lacking at times as well for plans and events etc.

  • 7. How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
  • our course was about lean manufacturing and i have used lean and have thought about being more lean in the way i do my jobs, its not always impactful but it does make me reconsider the way i do things to make it more efficient.

  • 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.)
  • there are but i would prefer not to take part in them, even if they are mandatory. i want to work at my placement and not have to worry about anything else asides maybe training.

  • 9a. Would you recommend BMW Group to a friend?
  • Yes


  • 9b. Why?
  • Rolls royce is a company that carries a lot of weight as well as being a very good employer, the jobs i work are very good for their effort required and the money earned (sometimes), i would also recommend it to anyone who is also into cars in general because its very technical and diverse in jobs .


  • 10. What tips or advice would you give to others applying to BMW Group?
  • keep your nose clean, sell yourself to the employed on why you should be picked over everybody else and demonstrate why in your interview. good luck
