Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:

5/5
I thoroughly enjoyed my job and have had ample support from IBM throughout my career
Skills Development
Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
5/5
I have learnt a vast amount of skills whilst working here. They have taught me everything I know, from management to technical skills such as testing and configuration. I also worked as a business analyst and closely worked with client stakeholders.

5/5
Everything is clearly and very well structured. Coming in as a new worker can be daunting but IBM have many resources to help people get settled
How much support do you receive from your employer?

Throughout my 6.5 years working here, I have received so much support and guidance from multiple areas.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?

I had an assigned manager from the training providers side who guided me throughout my degree. She checked my work and gave me advice. She was always on hand to help.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
5/5
With my degree, I feel more confident and knowledgable about management and the different skills I can apply to my job that I had learnt on my degree.
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
IBM have the best resource groups for everyone and anyone to join. I had the opportunity to lead one of the resource groups, which gave me another community within the business to turn to. They have socials and events organised by these groups to help people get to know one another.
