Chartered Manager Degree Apprentice Review

Kit Kat brand team. Project work based on internal launches of new products for the future, coming up with website strategy and creating content to grow brand equity. Frequent external engagement with agencies, distributers & cross functional work internally.

Microsoft Excel specialist Presenting with impact. Managing in a matrix. Digital training with Google. 4C selling bitesize. Managed a work experience student. Stakeholder management. I have learnt the fundamentals of how to succeed in a large organsiation.

Welcoming company culture, incredibly inclusive and flexible. Exceeded expectations, with great line management allowing work to be done in the most efficient way possible. Regular and varied involvement in my development from a range of stakeholders.

Very valued, as i am donigb a real job with responsibilities usually obtainined from years of experience. Treated as an equal to every line manager, at varying levels of seniority in the business. Internal recognition is excellent, encouraged and generous with points on offer and also cross functional recognition.

Induction plans organisaed and thorough, increasing speed to competancy in every 6 month placement. Spport is given freely and all work covered for studying to ensure full attention can be given to my study. Mentor programme ahs been the most valuable experience since joining and i often have more support points than required. CMI aspect of the apprenticeship is poorly organised, however not particularly a fault of Nestle. The value of completing the CMI accreditation is not recognised by the employees on the programme.

Great support for individual module leaders and very accessible, even at a distance. Sometimes marks are a little late in coming back, but all in all very supportive and they are there when we need them. Not much support is required at this stage in the programme, however the Nestle team meet with the University to discuss prgress regularly and that feeds into our goals.

Exceptional supoport, in line with company culture. Managers are keen to be involved in developing an apprentice rather than just managing. HR team are helpful and present when needed. The attitude towards support is very open and welcoming.

Covers costs, with minimal left over. Living costs for the location are reasonable, travel costs are not so expensive. However, mobility is very limited by the London weighting being so poor. The London weighting of £1000 is simply not enough of an uplift. The package is weighted towards the degree being paid for, which is generous.

Due to the number and range of apprentices ehre, there is an excellent social involvement. Many opportunities for work social occasions, with volunteering days given 2 a year out of the office. Many employees live close to the office and so work organsied,and employee organsied socials are regular and enjoyable. There is a great community.

Yes

A flexible, welcoming company that wants to develop young talent. Great culture and great people!

Involve the company values and culture into why you want to join. Research what a strengths based interview is before sitting the interview & allocate enough time to complete the pre assessment day tests. The experience is well communicated so i was in knowledge of what i needed to be told.
