This week, Telent held a 'Rail Graduate Day' to bring together Telent's Rail division graduates. Nurturing our graduates is really important to us, so the event was a great opportunity to help them form valuable connections with the rest of the team and prepare them to find success in in their graduate roles and beyond. The day of presentations included a talk from former graduates, where they shared their journeys within Telent and valuable advice to the new cohort. They were also joined by leaders from across the business who covered topics that are key to navigating today’s working world. Graduate Project Manager Georgia Abbott had this to say about the event: "It was so insightful attending the 1st Rail Graduate Day this week, as I finally had a chance to meet all the newer grads that have joined rail! The day was full of networking and an opportunity to hear about life after the Graduate Scheme within Telent." Thank you to all of the speakers, event organisers and attendees for making it such a memorable day.
