hr administrator Review

my role on a day to day basis is working on myrecruit, sending manual DBS/ approving references and application forms e.g health questionnaires, I also manage and process volunteers. I do contract changes and I work on the askhr call line providing guidance and advise to colleagues around the country.

I have learnt new skills, my customer service skills have improved as well as my communication (written and verbal) skills, as I send emails and receive calls a lot of my day, I have also learnt skills on different programs such as myrecruit, Cherwell, itrent and other systems in my team

I enjoy the courswork, I think it's very interesting and supports my job a lot. I receive support from the training team in Anchor but not so much from Babcock which has meant I have fallen behind in my coursework as I haven't received the work needed to continue

the coursework is very structured and I find easy to follow, the structure from my external trainer (babcock) has not helped me excel in my course work, which has slowed down the process for my course as the work I've been asked to do has not been very structured

I receive a lot of support from my team, as several members are in the process or have completed their CIPD which has helped me increase my quality of work. My colleagues have also supported me and helped to the best of their ability and provided guidance and advise in the process

the support I have received from my trainer (babcock) is limited, when I do my 1-1 with my trainer the support is sufficient but contacting via email is a struggle as I often don't get responses, which doesn't help when I need to move on to a different module or ask for support.

the course has helped me get a better understanding of HR and what HR is involved in, it's helped me improve my work and helped me provide better support to my colleagues. Doing this apprenticeship will help me be better at my job as I will be qualified and gives me the option to receive more training

I am going to hanovers support building to provide training to colleagues for 1 week down south, I get involved in training away days, my team has half day meetings to discuss different teams within Anchor Hanover, I have visited locations and have had a support service team building away day
