Old Masters Apprentice Review

I absolutely love it, I have an amzing team and an incredibly supportive manager. I genuinely feel that I am learning more than I would at University while in the office. The community the apprentices all have together is great, and there is a real sense that everyone is rooting for you to succeed. However, the actual proccess of starting my apprenticeship scheme was delayed by a significant amount of time which was a slight inconvienience, as a result I am a few months behind the other apprentices and my contract may be getting extended. I understand this was out of the control of Christie's and don't fault the company at all but some more communication and clarity may have been appreciated.

I am comfortable with a large range of Christie's specific applications and have improved my profficiency with Office 365. I have also generally benefitted from being in an office environment and feel my confidence in taking calls/meetings has grown.

There are a huge range. We have more casual fun events for just the apprentices, and also have the opportunity to attend more formal events such as gallery walkthroughs, lectures, cultural events, panel discussions, wine tasting, auctions, etc.

Evaluate your interests and make sure that you are ready to get the most out of the apprenticeship as you can and work hard. It helps to be passionate about something which relates to the department you have an interest in. Before you apply it is a good idea to research the different departments at Christie's and put some time into deciding whihc appeal to you and your interests/skills.
