Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
4/5
I work in recruitment marketing and help to manage our life@sage pages> I create most of the content that is published on these platforms and they are colleague led stories that showcase the experiences of colleagues at Sage which builds the visibility and awareness of our employer brand. I also run Glassdoor review campaigns internally to encourage review volumes and I manage our Glassdoor profile including responding to reviews.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?

Structure and Support
How well organised/structured is your programme?
4/5
Very well structured.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
4/5
My manager is very involved in my progress and gives me the time I need to concentrate on my school work
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
4/5
All the support I need. My skills coach is incredible and so is the rest of QA. I have regular support calls with them too as I might have ADHD and they've been very supportive so far.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
4/5
It definitely does. It helps me understand my job better and also my shortcomings which helps me develop in my role
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
I am part of our Pride Network - I am one of the Newcastle leads.

What tips or advice would you give to others applying to Sage (UK) Ltd?
Be yourself and show up with your best foot forward. It does not matter if you feel like your best is not 'the best.' Sage hires people for who they believe they can become not necessarily who they are at a given point in time.
