the work is very related to study at the minute as am working on a modelling project so the CM1 exam is particularly useful and transferable between both.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
3/5
regular social events
Recommendations & Advice
Would you recommend WTW to a friend?
Yes
Why?
Felt I had a confirmed role from day one - by this I mean having dedicated work to do and the support around the office is great. Not once have i felt un-welcome in the office.
What tips or advice would you give to others applying to WTW?
Research the company before application as there is a large application process. Be confident in your abilities and also just be open and honest to the interviewers. If you are not sure, have a go but don't lie! They can tell!
