Recommendations & Advice

Would you recommend BT Group to a friend?
Yes
Why?
it is a massive company to work and there is various chances and opportunities to go into as well as a tremendous amount of support be it from your managers or colleagues as well as online on the intranet. there are rooms to enhance your skills and develop them further which is always a plus.
What tips or advice would you give to others applying to BT Group?
To be true to yourself, as well as making sure you have an up to date cv with any relative qualification gained which can be put down, the application process is somewhat tedious with having a prescreening in which you record yourself and 2 separate video interviews as well but it is not too bad at all.
