About You
Lots of contact with staff and useful hints and tips about applying. Good insight into the culture of the company.
Made to feel welcome by all members of staff, all the staff seemed to want to help.
Good session on interviews and application.
Will help with applications and also just seeing some examples of where engineering has solved big problems.

Very, good plan for the day and the timings were kept to, not too much of one thing.
Friendly and inviting
They gave us lunch and cake as well as a hoody. Only 1 day wasn't expecting anything more!

It gave me a very good idea of the culture.
Reinforced what I already knew but made it seem attainable.
