I currently work on a Networks team, implementing networking-related requests and troubleshooting incidents to find a solution to any problems.
I have developed various networking-related skills, as well as those related to AWS and the Cloud. I have also been involved in some scripting tasks, which involve coding in YAML and executing these using Ansible.
I thoroughly enjoy working with the colleagues that I do - they are all extremely supportive and understanding. I have learnt so much since starting the apprenticeship, and have been exposed to multiple different platforms, enabling me to find a specialty/what I enjoy.
The induction process was very thorough - I was walked through every process and was introduced to the wider team. Every member put me at ease and each offered their support - they were all willing to go above and beyond to ensure I understood the processes. Overall, a very organised programme.
I was very fortunate to be surrounded by the team I have been. Each member, and my manager/mentor especially, continues to ensure I am at ease and understand exactly what I am being asked to do. Training plans were designed to tailor my needs and goals.
I thoroughly enjoy my degree - it allows me to put the knowledge I have learnt into practice in my day-to-day role. The support I have from my employer and training provider are great - they are always willing to set up a call or offer resources where needed.
Very well - the knowledge I gain from the degree, I can put into practice in my role - this helps to consolidate everything I have learnt.
There are infinite activities to take part in - like scheduling coffee events, charity/volunteer work, lots of perks when joining and various company events to attend.
