Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
My role is a rapidly changing one, with tasks being primarily adhoc and working in projects. This has been great for my placement as it has allowed me to improve various skills as well as preventing my job becoming mundane.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
I was given far more responsibility than I expected when I joined which has been massively fulfilling - I have presented in whole team meetings as well as completing projects requested from other areas of the business completely individually and being trusted to implement these.
Please rate how meaningful the work you were doing was

Recommendations & Advice

Would you recommend BMW Group UK to a friend?
Yes
What advice would you give to others applying to BMW Group UK
I would encourage people to be themselves in interviews and do not pretend to be the perfect candidate you believe they want to see. Managers want to see a curious and motivated person who is themselves and not playing up to an expectation as it is easy to see through.
