Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
5/5
My role day to day involves the recruitment of a variety of roles across the ALDI UK 11 regions. I liaise with internal stakeholders on a day to day basis and regularly report on recruitment trends and changes and feed this into strategic decisions made by my senior leaders.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
4/5
I am really enjoying my programme, the webinars are really engaging and helpful. I am able to go online on my portal and re-watch them if needed and my tutor is great and always on hand to support with anything I need.

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
4/5
I have learnt a lot more about different employment laws and how they are put into action day to day within HR. This isn't something I work as closely with in recruitment so it's interesting to see how this works

Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?
4/5
The programme is really well structured, I am able to know in advance when my webinars are taking place so I can work this around my day to day job and I can plan around my deadlines as these are all set out well in advance too.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
3/5
My employer has been great in supporting me to complete my apprenticeship. I am able to complete my apprenticeship work within my working week and I am able to manage my own diary affectively.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
3/5
I have regular catch ups with my mentor and she is really supportive if I have any questions or queries.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
4/5
I think doing this apprenticeship will widen my knowledge of HR policy and procedure as a whole and will allow me to be a more well rounded HR professional
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
3/5
No social activities at our workplace
