About You
The first few days were extremely tiring as the first day was just an initial overview. However, the third day things picked up since there were interactive games, a networking dinner on the fourth day and half day on the last day.
All questions were answered, from basic to complex ones.
Skills sessions etc. were fairly basic and things we knew beforehand, however hearing employees' experiences and answers during the panel Q&A was informative, as was the networking session.
The Company
There was one day where those who did not want to do Technology had a 2 hour break.
very positive
Skills sessions, innovation forum and an outside psychologist who took one session.
This depended on the employees you spoke to.
Stressed continuously.
Listened to a range of divisions and made a final decision.
Everything Else
Reimbursed for travel and accommodation was paid for
Lunch and one dinner, not as much as I would have liked
Dinner was excellent, employees rotated each course of the meal and we were sat in our divisional preferences
