7. How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?

When something is taught by the training provider, it might pop up during a meeting or could be a reference to something within my job role. I would then know what it means.

8. Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)

Not very much, my job role requires me to work from home most of the time. However, there has been times where we've had social events in the office and I have also been invited to an event on behalf of City and Guilds as an apprentice.

Yes

Because I enjoy it here and I am pretty sure they would too. Especially because the job role I currently do is really interesting.

It is okay to not have much experience when applying here, especially for an apprenticeship. You will manage to pick up a lot of transferable skills along the way.
