What advice would you give to someone applying to this role?

Application advice would be to apply for a sales/BD role if that is what suits your personal qualities. This is the function where you get the most opportunitity to progress and have the best opportunities presented to you throughout the general working day. Such as overseas travel and attendance at very senior, high profile meetings/conferences.

I would also suggest applying to work at one of the smaller Thales UK sites. The larger sites are good for a week or so, or to learn about the various aspects of the business but in terms of workload/value/opportunities the smaller sites offer a considerable amount more. They have the more 'family' feel in the office and have more time to share with their graduates therefore not making the graduate feel like they're just swallowed up and in a 'pool' with all of the others.

Do you have any interview tips?

Look up Thales UK on the intranet and understand the business as much as you possibly can. Be enthusiastic and show the willingness to learn. The interviewers feedback was that they just look for the enthusiastic, motivational people who show potential as opposed to those who 'know it all'.
