Recommendations & Advice

Would you recommend Leonardo to a friend?
Yes
Why?
Really good workplace culture and healthy balance of work and life. The benefits are generous and the pay is good for somewhere outside of london. They make pay accomodations for people who move here from far away to help them with moving out and in. The people are friendly and always helpful to new employees and apprentices/grads. The work is pretty much always interesting and someone can always find projects they enjoy doing.
What tips or advice would you give to others applying to Leonardo?
Apply early and do your research about the company, what it does and job role that you're applying for in the interview to impress and show interest.
