Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
5/5
Carrying out customer installs and repairs on copper and fibre network
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
5/5
The programme is a mix of on the job and off the job. On the job is more enjoyable and helps me learn valuable skills

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
5/5
This is a new career for me but with the help of my buddy I developed on my basic knowledge and progressed well

Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?
5/5
Pretty well organised. Could have done with more information on the course at the beginning as a lot of stuff was not explained properly.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
5/5
As much as I need
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
3/5
Feels like we could do with more at times but this is due to the lack of explanation and information on the program at the beginning
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
1/5
Not at all. The on the job training helps me. I am being paid peanuts to do the same job a trained engineer does
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
Not that I know of

Recommendations & Advice

Would you recommend BT Group to a friend?
Yes
Why?
Because it is a good company and the work is enjoyable
What tips or advice would you give to others applying to BT Group?
Only do it if you really want to. Too many new recruits that don’t realise what they are getting into.
