Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
4/5
Advertising roles, screening applicants, telephone interviewing candidates, organising face to face interviews.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
4/5
I really enjoy my programme, it is going well and at a pace I can manage. My trainer is very approachable and quick to reply to me when I email her.

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
4/5
Yes, I feel a lot more knowledgeable as a whole with regards to HR. My conversations with stakeholders and peers are more informed too. I have also found out a lot more about my own organisation and where they benchmark alongside competitors.

Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?
3/5
It is very structured. I do find that sometimes I could do with a break in between handing in one assignment and starting on the next as it is quite full on to prepare for the workshop when completing the previous assignment.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
5/5
My line manager is very supportive and always has time for me when I have questions and queries about my apprenticeship.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
3/5
I receive an adequate amount of support from my training provider, I do not think there is much more they can do.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
4/5
I believe that it has started to helped me, and as time goes on I will feel more rounded as a HR professional.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
3/5
Yes, there are lots of social activities, and extra-curricular activities if I want to take part. Not so many networking opportunities though unfortunately.
