Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
4/5
My role consists of managing and maintaining the hospital at royal Surrey hospital in Guildford. I work with a diverse team, who are skilled in many fields, the day to day role consists off fixing lights and installing lights in wards to unblocking toilets.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
5/5
I enjoy the practical side and working in the hospital I get to learn everything. The environment is stressful however it’s extremely rewarding knowing our efforts are keeping lives and saving them.
Skills Development
Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
5/5
I’ve learned how to handle tools and using them in an effective manner. I’ve learned how to use correct PPE before starting the job.
Structure and Support
How well organised/structured is your programme?
2/5
I would say it’s organised however there are a lot of pressures, as the colleges have multiple issues which make the learning experience not very pleasant.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
4/5
I would say I receive the best support, however I wish they could have more time for apprentices as I don’t feel like we are heard enough.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
2/5
I feel like more work is to be done as I do not get the 1-1 meetings to review what’s going right and wrong. Instead they wait for the matter to reach a point where you feel like quitting.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
3/5
I believe I need to learn more as the learning is very fast paced. But my qualifications have helped me as I have some knowledge of the basics which sets me above my peers.
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 social activities, I wish there could be more as this would create a more positive environment for apprentices.

What tips or advice would you give to others applying to CBRE Group?
