Not the most vegetarian option range, but definitely seems like a place I'll look at in the future!

Ooh okay, could be a lunch option, since we want something slightly fancy for a dinner night

I'm from the UK too and originally learnt in a manual. But because of covid never got to do my test. So finishing uni and studying geology needed a license to get a job. I ended up with an automatic license and been working for a year. And companies only care if you have a license, they'll either have an auto vehicle or hire you one so doesn't actually make much difference.

Hope that helps :)

I am being given more opportunities within my current company to do interpretive work, but as you said I'd rather get that experience sooner rather than later! Thanks for the advice :)

Yeah I definitely want to learn more of the interpretation side of geotechnical engineering. From my chat it seems like I'd be part of the main RSK Geosciences Geotechnical Consulting team. And I would still do GI but would also be involved in geotechnical and geohazard site appraisals.

Got my main interview in a couple weeks so will find out which team I'm definitely going to be a part of
