  • 6a. How much support do you receive from your training provider?
  • I've had good support from my assessor by meeting him every month at my office and I can also get in touch with him if I ever need help. However, sometimes I have to wait a while for a response and it's taken a long time to work to be marked.

  • 6b. How much support do you receive from your employer?
  • I've had plenty of support from JLL. My Manager is often available if I need help. We're had productive meetings regarding my job role and the Apprenticeship. The Emerging Talent Acquisition Manager has looked after me and the other Apprenticeships. We had a few meetings discussing how I'm finding the work and Apprenticeship. She is always kind and supportive. Lastly, my team have been very supportive when I've needed help.

  • 7. How well does your salary/package meet your costs?
  • For an Apprenticeship it's okay. Train fares are considered. However, due to my living location I need to drive to the station which is extremely expensive. It's around £7-£8 therefore I think the salary/package should be more in regards to people's living locations.

    6/10

  • 8. Are there many opportunities outside of work?
  • Yes. I've been to a few social events including charity events and a JLL Christmas party. I also play football with some people from my office and there are also opportunities to volunteer. I would still like there to be more events/classes to attend.
