I've got a bit of advice if you get in do not post ANYTHING slightly controversial on social media, as they watch it like a hawk, do not trust anyone there, as there seems to be a bit of a backstabbing culture, its very much jobs for the boys (or girls) if you look at the amount of family/...

I've just landed a 6 month fixed term contract with Virgin, how often are people taken on permanently after these? I guess it gives them a chance to root out under performing staff, if I do well am I likely to be offered something longer?
