Web Assistant Review

In my role as a Web Assistant I rebuilt pages In AEM (Adobe Experience Manager), ensured all pages assets are correct - images and videos and updated the current website page properties. Additionally we were asked to implement consistency across the website. In addition cropping assets and ensuring the correct accreditation was placed on each image was a huge part of the role.

Yes I have learnt to be more organised and my time management has also improved. Moreover working with Adobe Photoshop and AEM (Adobe Experience Manager) has also given me the skills which I require to be able to apply for a job in AEM or do a course. Working within teams is another skill I have developed.

I enjoyed the program and enjoyed working with [This section of the comment has been removed by a member of the RateMyApprenticeship Team because it did not meet our site terms and conditions]. In addition I enjoyed working with different teams such as the marketing team or the sales team and understanding how the different teams come together to make one big team - like a puzzle - they fit into each other. However one suggestion I would like to give is I would have preferred doing more different things such as: working more in marketing or doing different tasks as after a while I felt some tasks became repetitive.

The induction was quite long - setting up laptops took a bit of time. The training for Photoshop and AEM was not so long, playing around and getting to practice working with both the software helped me to become more comfortable with them. The support I received from [This section of the comment has been removed by a member of the RateMyApprenticeship Team because it did not meet our site terms and conditions] was good, he always tried to help to the best of the ability and working with him was fun. Meetings were set and we were asked how we found the program, if we felt we needed help etc.. Task delegation was fine.

I received all the support I required. If needed I asked [This section of the comment has been removed by a member of the RateMyApprenticeship Team because it did not meet our site terms and conditions] for help and I knew he would assist me to the best of his ability. In addition guidance with problems were clear and easy to understand. Moreover the general attitude towards supporting me was always positive and good.

I feel that after completing the work experience I have a better understanding and more clear vision of what career I would like to go into in the future. Additionally I have learnt I do not like to do repetitive tasks and so when applying for jobs I have applied to jobs which incorporate a mixture of daily tasks and working both alone and in teams.

I was not told.

Yes

Working for Pearson was a good experience. I enjoyed working with others in different teams such as marketing and understanding how different teams come together to make one big team. Moreover I felt I fitted in to Pearson quite fast and I felt comfortable working with the others. It was a nice place to work and was fun.
