Business Analyst Review

From a day to day basis I analyze data what has been provided by our stakeholders, with these I aim to help drive business success to our client. I communicate with different methods and across multiple roles and teams, I do this through stakeholder management. I help support development teams in the implementation of the project.

Throughout this apprenticeship I have developed my communication skills by learning different approaches, such as interview style techniques or through a workshop styles meetings. This has helped boost my stakeholder management skills. I have also learnt new skills though learning investigative techniques such as SWOT analysis. I've been able to translate the skills I've learnt throughout this apprenticeship to my work.

I do enjoy the programme I am on, it has been valuable to learn multiple new skills as well as being able to develop some of the skills I have already, throughout this apprenticeship programme I have been able to use these skills in my day to day work which has been beneficial for my and the company.

The structure of the programme is very well detailed. From the start in our introduction meeting the goals and expectations were set out from the beginning. This enabled me to get off to the good start to meet the course expectations. The courses were nicely spread out and not crammed into a short amount of time which allowed me to go at my own pace as well.

I always recieve support from my employer, right from the start. I was able to set and explain the expectations the programme required from me so it made it clear on how they was able to support me. Having sharing the programme with my employers made the communication clear on what was expected from and the employer

The support I got from my training provider was excellent. Having regular catch ups proved useful to help me keep on track and to guide me with any help I needed. As well as regular catch up they was more than welcome to answer and support with any emails I had sent with queries.

From the communication I got from my training provider it was made clear how the apprenticeship I was doing will be beneficial for my career. At this stage everything that I have done on the programme I have applied to my day to day role. This allows for a better adaptation to working life.

Through work there are plenty of extra-curricular activities, these are part of our social values. For example I was able to complete a charity bike right for Princes Trust, with this I was able to gain support from my employer, we also host opportunities to help in our local community such as going to schools and providing help with interview techniques.

Yes

The support and networking opportunities are in my opinion second to none. There's always an opportunity to develop, no matter how long you've been here for. With the vast networking that goes on anyone is able to fit in and feel like they belong. With our apprenticeship/graduate programme the room for growth is exceptional.

Some of the advice I would give is to always be open and honest with yourself and others. From my experience I've noticed that no one wants you to fail here at Capgemini.
