Recommendations & Advice
Would you recommend Rolls-Royce to a friend?
Yes
What advice would you give to others applying to Rolls-Royce
Make sure you know what department/business you want to work in before applying as the type of placement you will have depends greatly on this. (e.g. if you really want to work with aero engines then apply to civil and not innovation).
