  • 4. How well organised/structured is your programme?
  • I think they designed it very well but its for all retailers and some modules are not needed for my workplace. I think on the other side its good to learn a bit more and best practices from other retail sectors.

  • 9a. Would you recommend Post Office to a friend?
  • Yes


  • 9b. Why?
  • Post Office helps you in all aspects of job and provides you training and apprenticeship programmes and the salary package and other perks including pension are great. The best thing is about getting the maximum support from your managers and freedom to work the way one wants to.


  • 10. What tips or advice would you give to others applying to Post Office?
  • I will say be flexible and ready to learn and grow and you will get lots of opportunities. I have seen anyone starts working will never leave the company. I do understand now with franchising and ever changing customer needs competition is harder but if you develop yourself you will get more opportunities to work for PO Ltd.
