Everything you need to know about working in the Civil Service and the Fast Stream! Yup, that's right, I talk about the good the bad & the ugly.

In this video, I discuss what it's like to work in the UK civil service (Central Govt - in Whitehall), the pros and cons and I also delve a little into the fast stream and my general thoughts on the whole thing. Please note that everything discussed in the video is based on my own personal experience in the Civil service for 2.5 years for 3 different roles across 2 different departments at a junior-mid level. I have really enjoyed my time working in the CS so far and would definitely recommend it as a place for anyone seeking a career in public policy. So for anyone looking to join the civil service, whether via the fast stream or not, get your note pads ready - this one's going to be deep!
