The studying hasnt helped much. Some bits have been helpful but on the whole extremely different to how it is done day to day in the work place. Best practice is different to what we study at Uni.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)

Lots of networking, 5 a side football, cricket matches, cycling and golf days.
