Your Impressions
Overall it was a mixed experience. Some of the opportunities have been worthwhile and I have met lots of friendly and like-minded people. The role itself was fairly limited, with not much scope to develop meaningful or useful skills, especially those linked with my degree and academic studies. Despite this networking opportunities were good, as I interacted with almost every single function of the business as part of my role. Moreover, there were opportunities to get involved in the wider business by joining sustainability projects.
Yes
There are lots of roles available at Worcester Bosch, so I would carefully spend some time thinking about which role sounds right for you.
