Recommendations & Advice

Would you recommend BAE Systems to a friend?
No
Why?
As much as I enjoy it - its very much luck. The hiring process and actual description of responsibilities and work is poor. It's very ambiguous and you could land in something great or something you don't enjoy.
How well did the role match your expectations based on the recruitment process?
1/5
Wasn't clear at all what I would be doing or how it would work.
When considering the recruitment & onboarding process, have you any specific tips or advice you would give to others applying to BAE Systems?
Make sure you get as much information about the role as possible.
