Recommendations & Advice

Would you recommend Rolls-Royce to a friend?
No
Why?
I wouldn't recommend them because I do not think they are competent when it comes to business apprenticeships
What tips or advice would you give to others applying to Rolls-Royce?
Make sure you clarify exactly what you will be doing as my apprenticeship was worded to seem like it was a degree when it is only a level 4
