Recommendations & Advice
Would you recommend HMRC to a friend?
Yes
Why?
Yes, I would recommend HMRC to a friend because it offers strong support for development, good learning opportunities, and a positive working environment where people are encouraged to grow, learn, and make a meaningful contribution to public service.
What tips or advice would you give to others applying to HMRC?
My advice would be to be open to learning, show enthusiasm, and be yourself. HMRC values people who are willing to develop, work collaboratively, and are motivated to make a positive impact, so showing a genuine interest in growth and public service really helps.
