Business Administration Review

I work with employee's data. I use Oracle, Excel, Word, Outlook. I can update employee's personal information and also add new starters for PSE employee's, i ensure their salary, bank details, role, address etc is correct.

Ive learnt how to use Oracle and improved my knowledge in Excel and Word. My writing skills have developed professionally as i can confidently write professional emails and answer queries. I have also learnt about business, ethics, supply chain etc in the workshops.

We learn a lot in the workshops and it has been good meeting new people and knowing theres 9 other people in the same situation as you because theres 10 apprentices. However the workload is quite a lot from the apprentice academy tasks.

Its good, we spent a couple of days together at the beginning with our apprentice manager to get set up and have things explained better so we get an understanding of what is coming. The apprentice academy hasnt fully explained the assessments etc so ive mostly relied on the past apprentices at Network rail.

As much as i need/ask for. We have their email and teams so can contact anytime.

We have meeting with Emma and have her email so we are able to ask for help when needed and she is very helpful. We also receive the powerpoints from Michelle after the workshops.

Some of the tasks help me understand the organisation i work for, we also have workshops which give us an understanding of businesses as a whole. I rely more on my team at network rail to help me in my role though.

yes they have notices on screens around the offices, we have volunteer days, we also go over activities in our team meeting. there are also emails sent out by people to let everyone know.

Yes

Its a good company to work for, it is quite flexible if you have certain problems and they are understanding. They have friendly people all over, i have made friends in my team and also outside of my team.

Ask any questions you need to even if its double checking something as it can be important if you make a mistake, also make notes when someone is training you so you have them to follow when you do the processes by yourself. Try and get apprentice work done ASAP because you can get busy throughout the week.
