UK Apprentice Review

Lots of on and off the job learning. Start with basic responsibility to help you get to know systems and understand the work you will be doing. These responsibilities begin to build up as you begin to get an understanding of the workplace and the market. Lots of opportunities to learn and take on new challenges.

So many skills are learnt and developed during the apprenticeship. You will learn lots of new systems and lots about insurance. You will have the chance to develop skills such as team work or presenting in front of groups. The opportunity for growth is a key factor during this 18 month period

I very much enjoy my apprenticeship programme as I get lots of opportunities and get to work with lots of different people. The atmosphere at my office is very welcoming and people make you feel part of the team from day one which makes the experience a very enjoyable one

The Apprenticeship is very well organised/structured as it is clearly set out from day one. You also receive constant guidance from you own apprenticeship coach who helps you ever step through the process with regular catch ups and always being available to contact them when you need any help

You receive constant support from your employer as they guide you through the process and at no point pressure you.

You receive lots of support from you training provider as you get guidance from you own apprenticeship coach who helps you ever step through the process with regular catch ups and always being available to contact them when you need any help. You also have access to many resources such as past papers

The training provider helped me perform better as it gave me the resources i needed to complete my exams and receive my qualification. The access to revision websites and past papers were a key reason I was able to complete my exams. They also help keep you on track throughout your journey.

There are many extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work. There are constant talks being held for people to attend. There many opportunities for young people to meet up both inside and outside of work hours through the 'Next-Generation' group who host a wide range of functions throughout the year

Yes

Great company to work for. Makes you feel part of the team from day one. Offer lots of opportunities to work on different things and with different people. It is a great place to grow your career and learn many new skills that are useful both at work and in everyday life

Prepare for your interviews. Practice answering standard job interview questions at home. Be relaxed and honest in interviews as employers like to pick people they would be happy to work with rather than just the one who is the best at everything. Be yourself and be polite as being nice is very important.
