Responsibilities
I found at RWE I was treated as a full member of staff. I was given all the usual tasks and responsibilities of someone in my roles.
Support & Guidance
We had a mentor and a buddy within our team to help with any queries or issues we were having. Additionally, there was always constant on the job training and training courses offered to help you in your role.
Culture
The company culture is unlike other large firms, there is a strong focus on work-life balance, inclusivity and diversity. Everyone is really friendly and willing to speak to you.
Your Impressions
I had an amazing time at RWE and enjoyed the meaningful work that I did. I also hope to return there in the future.
Yes
Research the company and the different branches of it. Try to learn as much as you can about the energy industry before interviews and be yourself. They want someone that fits their culture more than anything else.
