Data Analyst Degree Apprentice Review

Data Analytics: Communicate problems and solutions with customers, solving them in an analytical way and feeding back in an a concise and easily understood way.

I've developed my communication and analytical thinking skills during my time within BAE. I've had the opportunity to learn and develop teamworking skills.

A lot! I love the work aspect of the apprenticeship, there's hardly anything I'd change.

From BAE's side, there isn't much that could be changed, other than perhaps a more streamlined system for acquiring placements where necessary.

As much as I ask for.

Not much, they openly admit to not taking any of our feedback onboard. Which is concerning considering we're the first cohort they've had. However there are still catch-ups in place to help us if needed.

Currently, not in the slightest. There's not been anything from university I've taken to my day job. This may change in the final year when I start my specialist subject.

The team has regular meet ups and nights out along with other social events (such as go-karting), so I'm happy with the frequency and quality of the activities. All I'd say is there could be more spontaneous pub-after-work type trips, rather than always being planned.

Yes

Good salary and opportunities, friendly bunch, great connections and generally prepares you well for a prosperous career.

Passing an interview is much more about how the employer thinks you'd fit in and work with the team than how much you currently know, so just try and be as pleasant as possible and you stand a good chance.
