Early Careers Placement Review

I assisted in the recruitment of Early Careers talent, managed university engagement and onboarding of placement new hires. I also updated our standard process of onboarding Early Career new hires for the UK business and streamlined our engagement strategy using data collection, management and analysis.

Yes. I was put on real projects providing valuable results to not only my team but the UK business. I was also the lead recruiter for a handful of roles, enabling me to get real, hands-on recruiting experience whilst also being in a position of responsibility.

I have improved my data management and analysis skills, business acumen and organisational skills. I have also improved my communication skills through various opportunities working with people from many different areas of the business.

I had regular 1-2-1's with my manager, enabling me to gain feedback on my performance as well as request support should I feel the need. I also had frequent touchpoints with my placement focal within the business which enabled me to gain insights on my development from a perspective outside of my team.

There is a clear culture of learning and continuous improvement at GE Aerospace. Everyone is always seeking ways to be better within their roles and are happy to help in your personal and professional development. It was a wonderful atmosphere to do a placement year as I felt supported and encouraged to gain new skills.

I thoroughly enjoyed my placement year at GE Aerospace as it gave me the opportunity to apply the skills/knowledge I had gained from my degree and apply them to projects that had a clear and valuable impact on the business, whilst also developing new skills and knowledge. The business supports the growth of Early Careers talent both professionally and personally and there is a real atmosphere of community and collaboration.
