IT Consultant Review

Checking emails, maintaining client relationships, supporting internal processes.

Have been continuously learning and developing skills since my arrival.

Gives me plenty of opportunities to network with people my age, allows me to work alongside researchers and professionals in my chosen field.

The university course is engaging and career specific, plenty steps are taken to assure that you meet and exceed the requirements set for you. Work life is rotation based with plenty of opportunities to move between roles.

The apprenticeship team are always there to assist you with your needs, on a day to day basis, my line manager or university skills coach provides plenty of support should I need it.

Working alongside my project manager I am able to request extra time if assessments are due at university, they are usually very understanding of the pressures and expectations and are very willing to work with you on them.

Usually, it is the reverse, whereas I have learnt the on the job experience and knowledge, then it is reinforced by the content covered at university, giving you confidence when you approach certain modules.

We operate a sports and social club that all members are encouraged to get involved with, it allows us to get access to other experiences at a discounted rate. University based extra curricular activities are also encouraged in order to meet people within your age group.

Good working environment, usually quite understanding, exciting roles on offer, great benefits.

Be yourself and be confident in your interview answers, research the company and show that you're willing to learn in your field and that you're passionate. Good teamwork/leardership skills is worth having too.
