Year one you learn the basics of the company and how it runs. Year two you jump into the manager role, running shifts cashing up.
Dealing with customers on a daily basis, managing finances on larger scale, first aid skills, management skills such delegating jobs.
The work is a lot more involving then first explained however because the teams are normally small you gain lots of close bonds.
Your hard work won't go unnoticed.
You are set a schedule for training and support which is helpful but can be rigid.
The tutors are they if you want to contact them.
The managers are there to speak to if you need them.
Whilst better then most apprenticeships, the wage rate is ridiculously low. You, especially as a year two manager, are being payed a much lower wage then the people you are managing.
There are not a lot of opportunities outside work as you are doing up to 40hrs a week sometimes more on irregular shifts patterns meaning you cant really plan ahead unless you have the rota.
Yes
As a normal store assistant role the job would be fine as you receive great pay and there is opportunities to rise up in the company.
Speak to people on the job to see if you have relatable skills and work ethic.
