Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
4/5
My role mainly revolves around assisting. My tasks were originally my site manager or project manager but were not a priority, so the tasks were passed to me.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
5/5
Those that I interact with and my trainer have been very supportive and have given a lot of positive reinforcement when it comes to reviewing my work. As someone that wasn't studious until later in life the support makes me look forward to a future in my current role.
Skills Development
Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
5/5
I would say the role more or less refreshed my memory of my existing skills since I was unable to use them as often before I began my current role. It is helping me in terms of communication confidence-wise and just in the overall experience.
Structure and Support
How well organised/structured is your programme?
5/5
I'm learning new documents much later in my apprenticeship, but the amount of time I have to organise my assignments and do my site tasks are extremely balanced and I never find myself overwhelmed by balancing.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
5/5
100% They take their time to explain and we have discussions incase we are all or both unclear.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
5/5
She encourages me to contact her no matter what if I have any questions. This is either through mobile or email and she responds back quickly.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
4/5
The more in-depth we go the more I notice certain things my project manager may say in a meeting that was covered in my assessments.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
5/5
We have volunteer days which can be either in central or out of central London. It ranges from decoration to interacting with the younger generation of our experiences.
Recommendations & Advice
Would you recommend Equans UK & Ireland to a friend?
Yes
Why?
My friend has similar work experience and I believe she would also enjoy the environment while getting a qualification and moving up in life.
What tips or advice would you give to others applying to Equans UK & Ireland?
make sure you look up the company's goal and if it's something you are genuinely interested in. I never thought I would do an apprenticeship in construction, especially since it is male-dominated but they have been extremely welcoming here.
