The work I do and the role I have learnt, has provided me with a extremely good grounding for a career in IT Systems delivery and leading onto Project management in the near future. I look forward to working and staying at HSBC for a long duration of my career, as this company looks after its staff amazingly and the perks and benefits actually support and help you out. I really enjoyed my apprenticeship and would recommend this apprenticeship scheme to anyone looking for a career in IT.

I am a fully valued member of the team, were I support all projects and work packages within my function. I constantly receive feedback from my line manager and other colleagues providing myself with praise and areas of improvement.

Induction was well structured and provided a insight into what the company does and how each of the business operates. Training was on-going throughout the Apprenticeship, with fortnightly day release training sessions and course work to complete and meet the courses criteria. We had our own team buddy, that supported us in own day role and acted as a mentor in our knowledge and career development. in total the programme was organised at the start, slipped of path a little at the midway point and then geared near the end where the support and help was amazing to achieve the certification and rewards.

They were extremely helpful in supporting me with my career development and increasing my knowledge throughout the scheme.

They were extremely helpful in supporting me with my career development and increasing my knowledge throughout the scheme. The attitude the bank had to your own personal development was amazing, supporting myself with funding external training courses covering all costs. My mentor was very supportive as he was very approachable and knowledgeable in the teams processes and IT infrastructure.

I was and still am being paid extremely well for a trainee apprenticeship role were I could and can live a comfortable life covering all my bills and out going costs. With the Apprenticeship finished I am now looking to progress into my next role and have a pay review to reflect my experience and knowledge.
