  • 4. How well organised/structured is your programme?
  • The induction and the start of the apprenticeship went very smoothly. Since COVID though things have gotten a little rough, however thats to be expected, however after discussing this, things are being resolved. Every other month I have a progress review so anything I need to bring up, I can do then.

  • 6. How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
  • As previously said, every other month I have a progress review. So anything I need to bring up I can do then. But any questions I can email over and they will be answered. So overall a lot of support.

  • 8. Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
  • I have done one since I started, it was a team building excercise out of work, not remotely connected to IT, but a zombie experience. Learning how to work together as a team (when being chased by zombies). Overall it was a great day, improved how well we all work together.

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


  • 9b. Why?
  • Its a small company, but that means we are all pretty close and have a good laugh and get jobs done. There are a lot of jokes thrown around. But there things you can learn from each other, and I am always learning something whether it be IT related or just daily life related.


  • 10. What tips or advice would you give to others applying to Digicube?
  • Be honest, as long as you are hard working and can have a laugh. You'd fit in fine here.
