Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
4/5
As a recruitment consultant I filter through candidate applications and register those suitable with our agency. I conduct check in calls with clients and candidates, as well as speculative emails and calls to new companies. I conduct daily canvassing calls in attempts to win new business.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
4/5
I enjoy the ongoing support and opportunities to learn more about my role and gain confidence in it.

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
4/5
I have learnt new canvassing techniques and advice during my professional discussions, as it has allowed me to reflect on my previous obstacles and define the solution for similar scenarios.

Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?
4/5
My future calls and sessions are regularly booked in once one has been completed, to ensure I know the next step. My apprenticeship trainer regularly checks in with me to ensure I understand what is expected of me at that time.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
4/5
I receive ongoing support from my manager and apprenticeship trainer throughout the apprenticeship and in my daily role.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
4/5
Constant and ongoing support, [This section of the comment has been removed by a member of the Higherin Team because it did not meet our site terms and conditions] is always checking in on my progress and making sure I am not overwhelmed and am comfortable with the tasks given and work expected of me.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
4/5
It has definitely improved my confidence in myself and my role and how I can apply my knowledge in professional scenarios.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
1/5
No
