Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
4/5
Packing, picking, learning and development, coaching, instructing is what I do at Amazon on a day to day basis. I work 4 to 6 days a week, depending on overtime which gives me an opportunity to do different roles around the FC. I do enjoy all roles but I prefer L&D.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
5/5
I thoroughly enjoy my programme, as it offers so much to learn from. I quite enjoy a challenge, so it was very enjoyable.

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
5/5
I've learned most of the critical roles on all the process I was able to do during my apprenticeship. This apprenticeship has opened my eyes a lot more and gave me a deeper understanding on how the supply chain is run in an Amazon FC.

Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?
5/5
Very well organised. The BUD app is very easy to follow and allows learning and easy access to trainers if help is required.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
2/5
Because the apprenticeship is new to the FC, my employer didn't have as much information they had hoped for and could not offer the required support needed.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
5/5
I received ample amounts of support . She offers alot of support and really helped me through this apprenticeship. Without her support and guidance I would have really struggled to complete tasks.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
5/5
It gives me a lot more knowledge on how the supply chain works. I had none before I started the apprenticeship and now I feel confident enough to be able to explain it from A to Z to anyone who asks.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
2/5
Not that I know of. There maybe some, and I have come across them yet.
