9a. Would you recommend Barclays to a friend?

Yes

9b. Why?

I would recommend Barclays for an apprenticeship due to the wide range of support available throughout the teams, apprentices, career coach, fantastic management and great training providers. As well as providing a very open and relaxed environment that allows everyone to be themselves.

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

The only advice I can give is that it's not important to have an initial understanding of banking systems, but to just have a genuine interest in Technology and be willing to learn what they have to teach.
