work experience (London & Bristol)
By completing work experience for one week at JET, students have the opportunity to learn about the Technology industry, through discovering roles and responsibilities within Product & Tech and learn more about their own preferences when it comes to future careers and working environments.
Students spend a week within our P&T teams, with three and a half days consisting of joining meetings, workshops, panel discussions and talks with volunteers across various roles at JET.
They will also have the opportunity to work more closely with a P&T team of their choice, such as Engineering or Data for a full day of work shadowing/activities.
