  • 7. How well does your salary/package meet your costs?
  • To be truthly my salary is a very good salary for an apprenticeship as it is nearly double the legal apprenticheshio salary for 16-21 year olds. However with myself being 20 years of age i am struggling to cope with the amount of money i am earning and the outgoing money it doesnt leave me with much pocket money. But on the aldi apprenticeship scheme your salary increases each year your on the apprentichehsip so when my next year starts i would be much more able to cope with the demands i am struggling to meet at this moment in time so all in all it is very good.
