Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
4/5
analysing, loading and transforming data into our internal testing platform. I also debug bugs and communicate with my team in the daily sprints.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
5/5
I am really enjoying it currently, however I would love the opportunity to experience a different team.

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
4/5
I have learnt how to code on python, sql and I have learnt how to communicate effectively via email and presentations.

Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?
4/5
it is quite organised / structured I know how to raise concerns to - however the rotations could be slighly more organised as I found myself reaching out to teams to secure a placement.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
5/5
I recieve allot of support from my internal team
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
5/5
The BPP university provider has been very helpful espeically during the lockdown period. I was granded an extension due to ramadan and stress near deadlines which was really helpful.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
5/5
The subjects and topics I have been learning are closely related to my role - for example I am currently studying Agile development which is very useful as I am working in an agile SCRUM team.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
1/5
I believe there is a lack of extra curricular activities - I would love to join a girls football team however I do not think there is a huge push for this
