As it is a huge organisation which has so many opportunities in it that allows you to progress. It is a great way to get experience in the business world as you see so many different jobs that you didn't know even existed before.

10. What tips or advice would you give to others applying to JLL?

Make sure your application form and CV is the best that it can be, so many people apply for JLL apprenticeships as they have so much to offer the apprentices they take on, you need to stand out. When it comes to the interview just be your self as I think personality is key.
