Cross Functional Degree Apprentice Review

The apprenticeship varies across the 4 years, but the aim is to experience many different job roles across the period to find where you would like to graduate into. My daily tasks are mostly around meetings with partners/customers, working on updating our databasis ensuring our contacts are up to date.

Yes, I have developed skills especially around cold calling, time management, relationship management, diary hygeine. I have also developed skills around collaborating with others as I am used to being a solo worker, so its great the skills that I have learnt.

I really enjoy the programme, it allows me to collaborate with new people internally and externally. We get alot of exposure and oppurtunity from senior managers.

The structure is very organised, expectations are set and the journey is clearly explained.

Out of my experience Cisco has been the best place I have worked, the people are lovely, the environment is great! There is more than enough workload to keep you busy! Rated No.1 Best workplace to work in the world.

Keep persevering to get yourself in, join the apprentice program, follow the socials, keep up to date with Cisco Trends.
