I am enjoying the Apprenticeship program. I am taking a lot away from it. I was relatively new to rile and the apprenticeship program has helped me get a fuller idea on the business that I probably would never if approached or be aware of otherwise.

Yes, I have been doing the apprenticeship for a couple of months and already I am feeling the benefit of increased product knowdge and confidence in my role.

What tips or advice would you give to others applying to Lloyds Banking Group?
Know your products. You need to be able to approach customers with different products and services, so it’s important that you know at least the basics of why they would benefit from them. You need to allow yourself time, and be relaxed around ques etc because it is a slower pace ensuring customers are seen too.
