What are the Best and Worst things about your job?
Best
The amount of training available is really good. I've had training on AutoCAD, SHEA and many others. Lots are relevant to working in the water industry but also several others for things like presentation skills and how to communicate with stakeholders.
Worst
The job requires commuting fairly often, and can be quite some distances. I would definitely recommend this more to people who have a car available to them. With it's main sites being in Derby and Coventry, travelling to either is not uncommon. Majority of the training is also on Coventry.

What advice would you give to someone applying to this role?
Be direct about what attracts you to the company, the application process is on the longer side. The application window is open for a very long time so after submitting it may take quite a while before you hear anything back
Do you have any interview tips?
The interview I had was online, remember you are on camera. Dress formally in a shirt or something similar, sit up straight and make sure you smile and pay attention. They will start with a little icebreaker, mine was asking you to grab something from nearby and describe how it represents you or an aspect of you. Mine was a Lego castle so it doesn't need to be too serious, but just something you can spend a minute to talk about.
