Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
3/5
Currently, I am on the bench waiting for a new role. Previously, I was working as a scrum master. It's very daunting being on the bench as there are not many roles available and the available roles require training.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
3/5
It all depends on your project/ if you are in a project. Some projects can be very tedious so it's important to find something suitable for you... this is easier said than done.
Skills Development
Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
3/5
I have learnt some skills mainly through the university though. I have learnt some software development skills and lots of business agility skills.
Structure and Support
How well organised/structured is your programme?
3/5
The university is fairly well structured. The University of East London is not very good at all though. Accenture can be structured well but it just depends on your luck
How much support do you receive from your employer?
3/5
University gives you lots of support. Accenture has a few opportunities for support but some of the apprenticeship staff are not very helpful and can make you not want to reach out for help.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
3/5
In regards to uni, there is lots of support available. At Accenture not so much.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
4/5
It's quite nice how well aligned the degree is to the roles available at Accenture
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
There are lots of networking events available. Also, there are many side of desk activities that you can take part in. I have not seen any sports teams.
