  • 9b. Why?

    • The scheme has been the best thing I coul dhave done since dropping out of university. You are able to develop in the work environment whilst also gaining professional qualifications. There are a substantial number of opportunities within the scheme and the chance to work in a whole host of diferent regions and parts of the business. The scheme in my opinion is the best in the insurance sector and Aon are the leaders for apprenticeships within this sector.

    • The application process can be strenous, however the company are looking for the best people for the job. Arrive prepared and try your best and if you are suited the company will chosse you. The opportunities, work, collegues and qualifications side of the scheme are all fantastic and time and effort you spend applying to aon will all be worthwhile should you become a member of the team!
