  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
  • Placement at E.ON last 6 months on rotation so my role and specific day-to-day tasks will always change. Things that carry over are things like communicating with stakeholders from around the business and working on projects that I can own that eventually have an impact on the business goals.

  • 2. Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
  • I've been able to gain an insight to the professional world, specifically the busy nature of marketing. As a result of this, I've been able to balance different priorities at the same time while working effectively towards tight deadlines.

  • 3. To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
  • I absolutely love my apprenticeship. I feel like I'm in full time employment as I'm not treated any less and I'm able to earn and earn at the same time which is a huge perk. From an academic standpoint, it can get quite lonely as apprentices can feel quite isolated but I can say the opposite for E.ON.
