Would you recommend BT Group to a friend?
Yes
Why?
Professional and well organised company. I felt like part of the team from day one and they have been very inclusive.
What tips or advice would you give to others applying to BT Group?
Don't be put off by the awkward video interview. Be friendly and tell them about any customer service experience you have.
