Project engineer Review

On a day to day role I usually open my emails and see what has been sent for the day. Emails come in through the day which also include work I have to complete. An example of the work I carry out includes booking subcontractors on to site so that they can carry out there work.

Many skills have been learnt since starting this apprenticeship. Skills continue to be l earnt everyday. Existing skills that I already had also continue to be improved on. I do believe this apprenticeship has encouraged me to improve on my skills to make me a far more efficient in the workplace.

I do enjoy my programme. I enjoy going on to site and getting experience of what the job is like. I also enjoy learning the practical and theory side of the job, This is because I enjoy knowing the process and what has to be done to achieve the final goal.

I believe the structure of my programme could be improved. From my experience there seems to be a lack of communication between the college and my place of work. Apart from that the general apprenticeship scheme seems to be put together well and allows you to experience plenty of areas in your work place.

I receive plenty of support from my employers. My employers are very good at supplying me with support weather this is support with my work or even mental health support. There are many people in my place of work that will specialise in diffrent sectors so there should always be someone to speak to

To complete my qualifications I require support from my team and the company. A lot of my qualification is completed by reporting what work I did in my placements. I also have to write questions which include questions about my work. My training provider would also point me in the right way to find out information.

I believe once I have completed my qualification There will still be a lot to learn but I feel that my qualification would have helped me a lot and I would be a lot more knowledgeable in certain matters than others who have may not have gone through my qualification.

There are many organised events that go on within Babcock. Usually these events are open to everybody in the company. These events vary from sport events to social events. You may also be able to set up your own extra curricular activates overs can join you would just have to talk to the right people to help set it up

Yes

I would recommend Babcock to a friend because I believe that the apprenticeship scheme is a great way to get your carer on track. They also accept people of all ages so that It is never to late to change your carer path around. They offer great experiences which is hard to find now in other companies.

Tips I would give to people applying would include researching the company so you understand what they do and what you could be doing in the future. Prepare interview questions so that when you come to the interview you are prepared and know how to answer the questions that are asked.
