It is difficult to answer this question as I have just completed the induction week, however the support I have received so far has been brilliant. I have spoken with my Maths professorwho has advised of materials I can start utilising and google chats have been set up with my other professors.

Recommendations & Advice
Would you recommend Toyota GB to a friend?
Yes
Why?
As a company they are very supportive in all aspects, within personal life, health and within work. The office space is incredible and allows you to have your own space, book meeting rooms and take a break in the innovation centre. The surrounding gardens are calming to walk through during breaks and the possibilities within the company itself are endless.
What tips or advice would you give to others applying to Toyota GB?
Research the company prior to interview, including the practices the company follows, including Jikan and Genchi. Be prepared to take on a task.
