Economics from Trent. Lower 2nd.
Degree is pretty worthless unless you get a 2:1 - and Economics is very much the wrong subject for that if you want to enjoy uni life to its fullest.
Aside from padding a CV I doubt it had any influence on the job I currently have. If anything, getting a 2:2 probably sets you behind someone who never took a degree. It says; "Had a go, couldn't cut the mustard".
Still, I had a fb time. :thup:
I think the degree itself is in a drawer somewhere, dunno though.

| Good choice of firm :cool: If you need any help with the interview process, I'm more than happy to help. Pass down the same stuff that alilaw gave me basically  </BLOCKQUOTE>
What "stuff"?
I only ask as I'm in the middle of a gazillion interviews and could do with taking on all the advice on board that I can. </BLOCKQUOTE>
Just advice on what sort of questions to expect, how to prepare for them and then when I got to the final stage, how to do in the e-tray exercise, the group exercise and the partner presentation etc.
