What are the Best and Worst things about your job?

From the very start I was working with key stakeholders on important projects and trusted to drive and complete much of the work myself. My exposure to the department has been amazing, I've been able to explore a variety of roles and study towards really great qualifications.

Worst

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

- Allow your personality to come across in your application.
- Research the company beforehand, many of the questions asked focus upon your understanding of the company and its ethos.
- If you can, arrange to meet with someone from the area of the business you're looking to apply for. Graduate schemes are highly competitive, so anything you can do to set yourself apart is great.
- You'll be required to take Maths and English tests, utilise the practice papers supplied, this is often where candidates trip up as they think they've got it in the bag.

Do you have any interview tips?

- NFU Mutual use Star Qualities, read these thoroughly before attending the interview.
- Compile a few examples that you can utilise within the interview. But don't just stick to a script.
- Customer service is central to everything the company does, so always bring your responses back to how what you did helped the 'customer'.
