    Business Insight

  • 3. What was it like understanding all about the business and potential roles available?
  • The knowledge they gave us during the day was very much easy to understand and later our exactly what the application process would look like for those of us looking to gain a place on any of Mace’s programmes, summer internships, industrial placement years or graduate programmes. Talking to individuals currently on the grad programme helped me see how varied people’s backgrounds can be to get to the programme.
