8/10

5. How much support do you receive from your employer?

Very supportive and I receive support from my boss as well as my colleagues (this is very dependent on team as I heard the opposite of my experience)

10/10

6. How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?

Very supportive, answers all questions and makes time for 1-1s when needed

10/10

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

my role is not exactly data analyst based however that allows me to stand out in my team as most are in different specialties and it allows me to have more experience/qualification if i chose to change my role later down the line

9/10

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.)

I dont really like to do extra-curricular activities however there are a lot of opportunities if i wanted

8/10

9a. Would you recommend Barclays to a friend?

Yes

9b. Why?

I had a great experience with my team and the benefits working for barclays are great, mainly the hybrid working and support from everyone around me

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

good luck, and if you get put in a not so great team try to change asap - especially in an apprenticeship as you will need your bosses support to complete it
