1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:

I’m on a valuation pathway so pathway, so most of my daily activities are based around valuation (inspections, report writing and data management). In addition to valuations I’m involved in other areas of the business to gain more experience in the real estate market + contribute towards my APC.

I came from a non-cogitative degree, meaning I had very limited skills or experience before starting the Apprenticeship. - Time management - Organisation skills - Speaking to clients (in person/virtually) - Valuation cycle - Data management
