Overview of Experience

Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
The programme consisted of multiple sessions that differed from day to day; the first day was more generalist and involved welcome sessions with senior employees. The next couple of days were more divisions specific and included Q&A sessions, networking events, desk insights and more technical sessions.
What was it like understanding all about the business and potential roles available?
Great, there was an insight into how the different divisions worked together.
