Overview
I worked as an Electrical Engineer within TfL Buses, including roles as an Electrical Engineer and Data Analyst
Skills
Communication, Networking and Power BI
Responsibilities
Responsibility wasn't given as you would learn more by doing numerous tasks with different colleagues throughout the team.
Support & Guidance
Line Manager, Placement Manager and other Graduates at TfL were always on hand to any help I needed.
Culture
Very nice and calm workplace, people are always nice and welcoming and are interested in yourself and the work. However, due to the speed of projects you will not fully see through a project whilst on a summer placement.
Your Impressions
Loved it. It gave me something brilliant to build upon in my career as an Engineer whilst making friends and just enjoying my day-to-day work.
Yes
The application process may be extensive but it definitely worth it in the end. Try to gain as many skills you want for your personal progression in your career and TfL will appreciate and help your goals.
