Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
5/5
Responsible for attracting, recruiting, selecting, managing and training interns, graduates and apprentices for our UK business.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
5/5
I am really enjoying my apprenticeship, it is providing additional knowledge that I have not yet gained through my role.

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
5/5
I have gained more HR knowledge as a result of my apprenticeship. It has also been extremely beneficial completing an apprenticeship as my team are responsible for the apprenticeship programme. I am now a lot more empathetic and understand the juggle of working and completing an apprenticeship. It is so useful when speaking to apprentices and their line managers as I truly understand what the experience is like from both sides.

Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?
5/5
Very organised. Expectations are clear and support is in place.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
5/5
My boss, team and wider HR team are extremely supportive. They always allow me to work on my apprenticeship and support with my assignments when I require additional knowledge and research.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
5/5
I have a very collaborative relationship with the training provider. They are always available for questions if I have them and are keen for us to succeed.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
5/5
For me, the knowledge was the only missing part of my role and completing this apprenticeship allows me to gain the theory that supplements my practical experience.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
5/5
Savills has a huge amount of extra curricular activities including sports teams, D&I groups, networking events etc.

Recommendations & Advice

Would you recommend Savills to a friend?
Yes
Why?
Savills is a supportive company who genuinely invest in their people and want you to thrive. I am proof that you are never too old or experienced to complete an apprenticeship and I couldn't have chosen a more encouraging and collaborative company to complete this at.
What tips or advice would you give to others applying to Savills?
Do your homework, research the Company - familiarise yourself with our culture, values, mission and purpose. How do our values align to yours?
Above all be yourself, we can teach you the technical knowledge but we want to get to know you through our recruitment process.
