Recommendations & Advice
Would you recommend BT Group to a friend?
Yes
Why?
So they can try for themselves.
What tips or advice would you give to others applying to BT Group?
Totally different in the real world from what they teach in the school. You will have days in the beginning when you don’t know who to turn to. Keep at it, put all your effort in and you get through. Use the various avenues like buddies, DCoE and Coords if you do get stuck.
