5/5
Its fairly easy to navigate although i find that the new system will work better
How much support do you receive from your employer?
5/5
Were given time to complete the tasks although it gets hard when its busy
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
5/5
My trainer Louise is amazing. She encouraged me through out and supported me when I struggled
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
5/5
I think it would benefit all colleges to complete. It widens your knowledge of the company and products and allows you to learn things a customer advisor wouldn't normally do.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
1/5
Not exactly. The company tries to arrange nights out but it never happens.
