Recommendations & Advice
Would you recommend Cummins to a friend?
Yes
Why?
learn loads of important skills and techniques that can take you anywhere in engineering the guys that teach me all come from different specialist backgrounds one was a machinist a few were service engineers one was aa panel wirer so they all teach me lots that they've learnt from previous roles meaning if i move on from here i can follow a number of paths about engineering
What tips or advice would you give to others applying to Cummins?
be confident ask questions and don't apply if your not interested its a waste of everyone's time and we can always tell
