2. Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?

I have developed my skills in presenting, before joining Unilever this was a skill I did not have and was very nervous to pursue, additionally I have learned so much more about the world of marketing and the different tools that are used industry wide which will be very helpful

9/10

3. To what extent do you enjoy your programme?

I find it very difficult to manage my day-to-day life, as well as my full-time job, my degree and then the tools required for the apprenticeship - I feel like I am very exhausted and over worked at times. Despite this I still enjoy the wor a lot, just need more time in the day!

9/10

4. How well organised/structured is your programme?

it has a very clear structure on what needs to be done and by who - this has improved with the recent total company restructure which has fully changed the way I work and the teams I am within. Its clear who I work with for which required projects most times

9/10

5. How much support do you receive from your employer?

I feel they are very supportive of the work aspect of my apprenticeship and spend a lot of time training me in new skills, however, they are not supportive of the uni aspect and the time required to balance both of these things at once which can be tough at times
