Metrology Technician Review

My role is to measure components on measuring machines to get dimensions that can be compared to the engineering drawing or CAD model. We check that the part is in the tolerance that the Engineer is wanting or to look into a area that has failed a test and we look into the area and see if we can see a issue in the design that made this issue happen.

I believe that the programme is structured well with things in place to make sure that we get the best out of the apprenticeship. There is a clear layout of what is happening over the time that I am in my apprenticeship and in my department, there is a structure where I'm needing to go around all the machines and get to a certain level of knowledge just so I have an understanding what the machine does and it's benefits.

There is so much support from JLR with people there to help and support if any issues. If there are any projects that need to be completed for college, JLR are more than happy to allow that work to be completed in work time and there is people there that would support me and help if i was struck.

There is somewhat support from the training provider. We are only there 1 day a week to do the Maths and Physics part of the Apprenticeship. It is helpful for learning about the theory on engineering but it isn't something that we do in my department. But it is a good thing to learn.

During the 1 day a week doing the Maths and Physics part of the Apprenticeship, I don't feel that it helps the job that I'm in. It is helpful for learning about the theory on engineering but it isn't something that we do in my department. But it is a good thing to learn.

Yes

JLR is a supportive and friendly company to work for. Everyone is very nice and just wants you to be your aesthetic self no matter what that may be. There are so many people that want you to do well and reach your personal goals. The facilities are good and there are a range of different jobs that cover every basis of any job. I would totally recommend to a friend.
