Application Advice:

If you're looking at the start of uni, it's worth getting some summer placements or a year in industry - if you like the company, it's easy to progress onto further placements/grad scheme.

Try and keep it calm, and do a bit of research about the company beforehand!

Don't overcomplicate/overextend your knowledge, as you'll get found out straight away. Any questions are unlikely to be highly technical so don't panic about that!

If applying to physics grad scheme, brush up on basic physics knowledge e.g. the principles of interferometry & laser physics. Normally interviewers are looking for someone that has a decent level of real world physics/ engineering intuition with a little background knowledge.

Interview Advice:

Possible phone interview leading to an assessment day. Assessment day has a group assessment where you solve an engineering style problem in a team and then a face to face interview with 2 engineers.

Quite relaxed interview process but do a bit of rough research about the company and the industry that they're in.

Application Advice:

Know the job that you are applying to. I cannot stress enough that a cover letter should explain how you are suited to the actual job that you are applying to and that you understand what you are trying to let yourself in for. Take the time to talk to someone in a similar job. Get to know the day to day ins and outs of the industry that you are trying to get into. Otherwise it will be obvious that you don't care about getting the job, just about getting *a* job!

Interview Advice:

My interview advice is much the same as my application advice - if you know what job you are applying for it will show through. If you actually want that job you will come accross as enthusiastic - and then if you are competent in areas that are required you stand a good chance of getting the job!

Application Advice:

Industry experience and extra-curricular activities are a really good way to show off that you have a genuine interest in engineering and it's applications. Get a good grasp of the products Renishaw releases and a rough idea of it's general market. As a physicist in background who has gone into the scientific stream, although academics are important there will be many other people applying with the same background, make sure you have something that sets you apart!

Interview Advice:

I did a summer placement with Renishaw and got offered my graduate placement from that. Therefore, I did not have a formal interview but generally for the scientific stream the roles will be optical physics orientated so look into basic optical principles and components.

Very pleasant working environment - stress free, cheap gym, nice and cheap restaurant.

Worst:

Location - sleepy countryside. The main office is closest to Bristol around 45+ mins commute, the other sites are closer to Gloucester. Living in the countryside makes it more difficult to meet people outside of work, and the commute to and from Bristol is a long distance and is prone to traffic.

Career progression seems quite poor - senior roles are filled by people who appear to intend to retire in their role. You must be very proactive to make any sort of small progress.

Best:

Excellent company to work for, providing fantastic opportunities to work on interesting and "important" projects that make you want to get up in the morning.

Good culture at the company, with everyone made to feel a key addition to their team. Training is taken seriously, and resources on training spent where appropriate to ensure you can perform your job adequately.

Competitive salary, with very good benefits package (lots of local discounts, cheap company-branded clothing, Christmas hamper and gift voucher etc.)

Worst:

Location is difficult to get to for public transport (not a problem for myself as I drive), but roads are quite slow and are hilly (I use a fair amount of fuel per week in my commute).

Some "politics" do exist between company divisions, this can make it difficult on occasions to establish clear requirements and can make some collaborations difficult to work with.

Best:

Worst:

Sometimes the atmosphere is just too relaxed. People get into the habit of working slowly and also leaving EXACTLY when their day ends. Work ends up going very slowly and can become dull.

If a design of a product has weak points, rather than work to redesign certain parts of the product, all that happens is more tests are implemented to catch problems so they're not shipped. Because of the long lifetime of the products it means that, in the long run, vastly more time is spent testing to catch the faults in an easily fixable design.

In general it is a nice atmosphere, everyone is friendly and relaxed. Due to the number of graduates taken on each year, their is a great social aspect to the role. The company has many diverse product ranges, which allows graduates to experience different industries. For example the medical engineering industry has very different regulations and marketing compared to spatial scanning.

Worst:

Some aspects of the company are run very inefficiently 'because that is how it has always been done'. I have found this attitude very frustrating, particularly for a company who's tag line is 'Apply Innovation'.
