My role is to analyse data and contribute to sprints on building the data platform. On a day-to-day I have only been attending meetings and am yet to complete tasks where I support my team
I have learnt skills in Excel, Power BI and SQL, however other systems/languages such as Python and R, I have learnt in theory but am still yet to use within the business
At first I found enjoyment when learning new things, however there has been a lack of support from NatWest and I am now not currently learning anything new and it has taken a toll on my deadlines for the apprenticeship
There is no organisation or structure within the business when delegating tasks that will support me in completing my course. No manager, no work to do, no one creating time to teach me new skills
I originally received support from my first team and it was great, but since moving to my team in January, there has been no support from my team or a manager. I have had to complain on multiple occasions so that I can meet my deadlines
My training providers have been super supportive and have allowed me the room to complete tasks as they have been delayed due to issues within the workplace
Yes, a lot of the learning from my course can be used on a day-to-day basis
Yes there is
Yes
Yes for a permanent role but would not recommend an apprenticeship
Try to improve skills on a daily basis so that you can progress throughout the company, keep and open mind in regards to roles and network
