I started my traineeship in 2010, of the 40 or so of us who were taken on about 10 were over 30 and they had mainly come from construction/pharma jobs, really qualified/intelligent people.

I don't think there was anyone who was 37, but there were a few who were knocking on 35.

A few came in with some exams, but once you're in it doesn't matter.

They're all doing well now.
