    • Personal Banking Adviser The apprenticeship as a whole was not a smooth process. It started off poorly however when the new mentor, Saoirse took over, it did improve. I am happy to have finished the process and am grateful for the qualifications, support and overall experience. I would recommend the apprenticeship scheme as I do feel it was a one off in regards to how my experience went.
