What tips or advice would you give to others applying to Ford Motor Company Ltd?
don't bother if you're not committed in life cars are not as simple as (engine spin and go boom)
if maths isn't a strong suit don't join
if you cant understand logic or common sense it is not for you
its a good job and the pay is nice but don't think you'll get through this course because you've "seen it on YouTube" this is a real Job with Real risks and you can cause death of others if you don't k now what you're doing or paying attention
be PREPARED
