Testimonials
Hannah’s Experience - I felt well informed through the recruitment process with an understanding of what the next step would be and advice on how to prepare for it, and results / feedback from each stage were communicated in a timely manner.
Fraser’s Experience - I really enjoy my job - it is a nice balance of fieldwork and computer-based work, and a wonderful way to visit parts of Scotland you might otherwise never see.
Calum's experience - The graduate scheme is an excellent opportunity to develop and learn, especially with the chance to move between placements in various business units or teams.
Getting the opportunity to complete both a HNC and get in job experience. The HNC is allowing me to build up my understanding of being a Power Networks Engineer and the in-job experience allows me to get a better understanding of the day-to-day tasks in the department. Every day I am learning something new, and I am also getting to interact and meet other employees both in my department but also in other departments.
