3. To what extent do you enjoy your programme?

I enjoy learning about all aspects of business operations within the modules. However, the work I do day to day is very repetitive and I cant imagine it being a necessary job in the very near future.

7. How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?

I don't think the role I am currently doing is amplified by this course. I wouldn't recommend an apprenticeship in this level of work as it has no career aspects within the company to follow.

8. Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)

yes, but most are located far away.

9a. Would you recommend Nationwide to a friend?

9b. Why?

Progression opportunities have been removed unless relocating. Being asked at short notice to travel and stay away from home. Communication issues. No availability for flexible working.

10. What tips or advice would you give to others applying to Nationwide?

Make sure the apprenticeship is genuinely a progressive role for your location and would not require you to relocate.
