Apprentice engineering technician Review

My role currently involves full time college as i am learning the basics of engineering, after June this year i will move onto working in company. This involves different lesson each day and assignments to complete for further learning.

I have learned a lot of new skills while in this apprenticeship, such as using machinery such as milling machines and lathes, understanding how mechanical measurements work and how important different fits are ( interference, clearance etc). I have developed my skills and passion for learning new things and taking electronics and machinery apart and reassembling them.

I have really enjoyed my time in this programmer and very confident that excitement wont leave during my time here. Everything i do in my day to day life are my hobbies, i love building things and seeing how they work and luckily that is my job. Its one thing to have a good job and its another to really enjoy what you do. I am lucky enough that my job is my hobby and i am enjoying it just as much as i knew i would.

The programme is structured incredibly well, the lay out of what you will be doing during your time in the apprenticeship is extremely clear and there are resources to help you at every step. Everything is planned before you even start meaning any questions you have can be answered immediately.

Lucy Electric as an employer are incredibly supportive, They are always there if you need anything whether that is more clothing or simply to answer a question, they are at the ready and are always more than happy to help in any way possible.

The engineering training trust are very helpful when it comes to working towards my qualification. They are there to answer any questions and give you a very varied programme.

Before starting this apprenticeship i had extremely basic knowledge of engineering and how engineering works, so this programme is crucial in me performing well within my role. Everyday moving forward i will lean new things which will only excel my interest and skill within my role at Lucy electric.

There are constantly new activities that anyone can join in on that gets sent through email such as social activities, it is optional, however like i said anyone can join.

Yes

Lucy electric are extremely supportive and they can help you as a person develop, that is one of their main objectives. They want to make you a better person and a great engineer.

First impressions are extremely important, add what your hobbies are make your CV look interesting. A lot of CV's look the same so make your stand out. Be honest.
