Williams Racing Work Experience 2023 (Formula 1, Engineering)

Has anyone else had a reply, good or bad, from Williams about the 2023 year 10 - 13 work experience?

I was successful and got the email yesterday, and am trying to find other people too!

What did your application focus on? Mine was engineering, and what dates would you want?

Hi 🙂 I'm hoping to apply for this work experience next year and was just wondering if anyone who was successful could give me an insight into their application and also what the experience was like in general? Thank you 🙂

It was really good! The applications open in January and it was a CV and cover letter. :smile:

I talked mainly about different STEM related things I did in school, a lot of things were done for my personal statement so I already have them ready. I also talked about my two part-time jobs, and how I was looking online for more information about working in F1. I also mentioned my future career aspects in the cover letter.

Thanks so much

Also, did you mention cocurricular activities, and approximately how many words was your cover letter?
