The programme is very well organised at BAE Systems however external FE providers have not always been well organised however this has been improved.

I receive full support from my employer, we are always asked if we need any help.

Very well, I don't struggle for money.

It's a brilliant company to work for, the work is interesting and varied and they look after you very well.

Be honest, relaxed and ensure that you have revised english, maths and engineering for the online assessments. Research the company, it always pays to know about the company you're applying for.
