Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
4/5
My role involves completing daily, weekly, monthly data analysis on financial crime within Nationwide Building Society.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
5/5
I have thoroughly enjoyed my program so far. It has been very rewarding and I have felt that QA have supported me throughout
Skills Development
Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
5/5
I have learnt a few new skills including the basics of a couple of new programming languages and developed existing skills that I already has as well.
Structure and Support
How well organised/structured is your programme?
5/5
The programme was very well organised with dates sent out at the start of when my live events were so that I could then schedule these in with my workplace to ensure I could attend them. The modules were spaced well enough apart to allow me to digest information learned and retain it.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
5/5
My employer gives me the support and time needed to complete everything I need to with my apprenticeship. I am allocated 1 day a week where I complete this work and I am not interrupted during this day. This typically tends to be the same day every week but it does move sometimes according to business needs.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
5/5
QA have been very supportive throughout this process. My tutor has always helped and guided me where I needed it and given me advice on how to take my pieces of work to the next level.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
5/5
This qualification/learning has definitely helped me in my role and without completing this course I wouldn't be in the position I am today as i wouldn't have the knowledge that I gained from this course.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
5/5
There are numerous extra curricular activities that people can get involved in if they want to. None of them are compulsory and all are listed on our internal intranet site.
Recommendations & Advice
Would you recommend Nationwide to a friend?
Yes
Why?
I feel Nationwide is a great place to work who look after their staff and are genuinely trying to do better and be better.
What tips or advice would you give to others applying to Nationwide?
Be yourself and be honest about your skills. Nationwide is keen to find the right people for the right job so even if you don't have all the skills but you are the right person you still stand a good chance and skills can be learnt whilst working.
