Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
4/5
I'm a CRO apprentice which means that we're using insights from user research and analytics to optimise the .com experience to improve conversion rates. I communicate with stakeholders, write emails and attend meetings on a daily basis.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
4/5
I enjoy it a lot! I don't hate coming to work, which is always a good thing, and enjoy the work that we're producing. Colleagues are approachable and friendly which helps too.
Skills Development
Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
4/5
I've learnt how to communicate better (more professionally), how to present more effectively in meetings and learnt many technical skills around marketing and some of the tools we use daily.
Structure and Support
How well organised/structured is your programme?
3/5
Sort of structured! It's a case of shadowing management and learning as you go.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
4/5
Enough!
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
3/5
Not a huge amount from the training provider, but it's not really required much of the time
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
4/5
My role in marketing is quite niche and so although I enjoyed learning about the other mainstream areas within the qualification, it wasn't needed in my job. It is extremely useful to know if I'd like to change jobs in the future though so I'm glad I did it!
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
