  • 3. To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
  • I enjoy my job mainly because of the people I work with. It is like having second family. We all get along and we support each other. F&M is very good when it comes to looking after their employees. I personally feel like I have been treated very well since I joined the company as a Christmas Temp and then offered a permanent full-time role with I really enjoy.

  • We do training with different brands at least twice a month. and the support I get from my Supervisors and Managers is very good.

  • 6. How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
  • My tutor is very supportive. She is very helpful too, if I do not understand the test or topic she will take time to explain it. she even told me I can always send her an email or text when ever I need support with my studying. at first I was a little nervous with my studying, but, after doing my first assessment with her I felt more confident. Love her!
