Very practical job, requires a lot of patience even to get used to the day to day activities. So much goes on at the 3 different production lines, that it can be a bit overwhelming to take all the information in.

Very strong emphasis on Health and Safety. Should be able to see the small details in everything but also the bigger picture. Innovation is something that the company is trying to push among the employees.

Interview Advice:

Build an excellent picture about yourself to the interviewer based on you past experience in health and safety (could be the smallest thing such as showing an awareness for safe working conditions), evidence of being able to work in a team and seek out new ways of doing things.

The questions were not designed to trip you up and were more about the role you will play in the department and the challenges of the company etc.

If you are ready to begin your engineering career and give your best shot at becoming a senior manager in the future to come you should think about applying for Tata Steel.

Application Advice:

Don't be put off if you aren't from a specific engineering related background. Most of what you learn will be fresh on the job, and people have succeeded with degrees in a range of subjects, from Geography to Mathematics.

Interview Advice:

As always, knowledge of the business' position and the market conditions are imperative, as interviewers are almost certain to check who's done their initial homework. Applying straight from a degree, there will be plenty of competency based interview questions (e.g. of the form "tell me of a time when you overcame a difficulty to.." etc.).
I would also strongly advise researching the steelmaking process, from iron ore to finished product. TATA Steel operates integrated steel works, which means it produces it's products from the very start. Some basic knowledge of ironmaking, steelmaking rolling processes would be very useful.
