  • 3. To what extent do you enjoy your programme?

  • 6b. How much support do you receive from your employer?
  • I receive a lot of support from my employer. My manager and members of my team are always willing to explain things to me if I do not understand them. When we started at Aon, all apprentices were asigned a 'buddy' and a mentor to give us a different person to talk to if we need help.

  • 9. Would you recommend Aon to a friend?
  • Yes


  • 9b. Why?
  • It is a very beneficial scheme where people can learn and work towards widely-recognised qualifications while earning and working. A lot more is learnt by being practical and doing the job and this helps when revising for exams.


  • 10. What tips or advice would you give to others applying to Aon?
  • I would say to research the company before the assessment day, try to think of examples of situations you have been in that show certain skills and also to relax during the interview.
