Day to day life

Typically, you\'ll spend most of your day coding and problem solving; working with your team to design and implement new features.

We start our day with a quick stand-up discussing the project the team is currently working on, any blockers we have, and planning for the day ahead. We then break off into individually, in pairs or small groups to complete various pieces of work.

It isn\'t all about work at Experian we have regular socials, games nights, play sports and you\'ll often find a group heading out to have lunch together or go out after work.
