Management Apprentice Review

On a day to day basis as part of management we have clear instructions on what is needed to keep the store in business. From working on the shop floor to looking after the safe to delegating staff consistently

In the first year of store assistant i was learning how to work with different people and customer focused 2nd year i learnt a lot on how to be focused on the job thriving to do better 3rd year completely lost the ambition no thrive to keep me going just seen as an apprentice and not manager

I've enjoyed learning what is meant to be a manager but the process is too long for the main goal and not valued enough

The first year or so very valued teaching new staff and everyone around me, now being the longest serving employee but still an apprentice with new managers and external managers feel I've been put to the side a little but still have the role of management which is keeping me going

Well, my store manager has never worked with apprentice didn't know where to start! I've changed learning providers a few times which is quite annoying where as I was very happy with the first learning provider, just not consistent and no communication! But the the learning providers have been totally great with making sure I pass and really see something for me

I've always been able to contact them when I've needed! They've given me great advice, both leaning providers and great contacts

The support has been good and satisfying but not majorly as they have other priorities.

Well as now I've worked through the years of management and work fully for a year as a so called "deputy" the salary could be a little more for the work out in as an apprentice

Working has given me a lot of opportunities outside of work in the sense on contacts and building reports as they've seen me grow through the ranks and see my capabilities

Yes

It is a good company and most successful at this moment of time, if you like to work fast it's the right environment for you!

Be prepared to work hard, be prepared to be given the role of manager, be able to take Critism, but stay strong to your word as so called higher voices can be seen as more important but not the case when they don't know really what they are saying
