Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
4/5
I build the network with my colleagues using mechanical aids put cable into the network whilst remaining safe at all times. We also pull out old copper cables
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
4/5
I am enjoying it and look forward to completing it and any further training that comes my way
Skills Development
Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
4/5
Learned how to be safer when working. How to use tools that I haven’t used before and how to work neater due to the need to make all work presentable and work to a high standard.
Structure and Support
How well organised/structured is your programme?
5/5
Very well structured I have all my study days booked in already by my assessor
How much support do you receive from your employer?
4/5
I receive a lot of support as I have days off to complete my course and any help I require is there should I need it
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
4/5
I receive a lot of support if I have any questions then I can contact [This section of the comment has been removed by a member of the Higherin Team because it did not meet our site terms and conditions] and he helps me should I need it
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
2/5
I feel like the qualification is not geared solely towards telecommunications and is pretty basic in terms of what I needed to do. One module was using the internet and how to access. There could be more modules on how to better understand the network
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
4/5
Not that I am aware of
Recommendations & Advice
Would you recommend BT Group to a friend?
Yes
Why?
It is a brilliant company to work for. I have a good work life balance and. Or every company will give you everything that you need to do your job and the amount of tools, equipment and training is out of this world
What tips or advice would you give to others applying to BT Group?
To just accept that it’s a massive organisation and that it sometimes takes longer than what people are used to for responses. It can be overwhelming the information but workplace and the A-Z has everything to find out any questions you have
