Trainee optician Review

The role mainly involved shadowing those who worked there already for the start of the work experience. I sat in on opticians appointments, manned the reception desk and undertook admin tasks.

Developed skills in customer services, regarding both on the phone and face-to-face.

It was an enjoyable experience and I gained a lot of new skills and experience.

I was very much valued by the team during my time there, and it was ensured that I felt part of the boots community

The programme was well structured and allowed me to experience a variety of what the daily job entailed.

A lot of support. They were very assertive and ensured I was always receiving the help I needed.

A good deal of support was offered in a number of ways. They certainly care for the employees.

The salary was sufficient, however was not as high as it could have been for such a job.

whilst I was there, opportunities outside of work were not well advertised

Yes

Good work environment, friendly and assertive colleagues and an all round good experiences

Be yourself and enjoy the job you are doing. Customer service is always key.
