What This Is

Not a careers office.
Someone who got there.

Slipstream is application support for engineering students targeting automotive and motorsport placements and graduate roles.

Built by a University of Bath MEng student who secured a placement year at McLaren Automotive, received offers from Triumph and Rolls-Royce, reached final-stage interviews at Bentley and was called to interview at Koenigsegg. The same CV, cover letter system and application approach is what every Slipstream service is built on.
