Best Apprenticeship Employer

Rating

3.5/10

1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:

during my apprenticeship, my role didnt correspond with the course i was taking. this could have been better planned on how i would complete a course without doing the day to day job

1/10

2. Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?

Excel, SQL, Python, PowerBI Even though i didnt do the day to day work, i still learned new skills (some better than others) and these do come in handy at times during my current role

5/10

3. To what extent do you enjoy your programme?

i enjoyed that i was progressing myself to be better, personally and for the company. COVID played a massive part in my learning however. Before COVID, i would have rated this higher

6/10

4. How well organised/structured is your programme?

Data Analysis - The programme was structured well. Due to delays, my course passed over into a different course with different criteria. This was no ones fault however

8/10

5. How much support do you receive from your employer?

Little. I was given unlimited time to do what i required outside of work, but i didnt do the role day to day, and no immediate colleagues were trained. I was self sufficient in having to learn the course. I did pass, but this speaks mainly on myself and perseverance rather than the support form my company

1/10

6. How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?

As much as i needed. This actually dramatically improved during lockdown, which was a necessity. i would prefer classroom teaching rather than remote learning however, hence the low score.

5/10

7. How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?

my current role - zero, as it has no link to the course at this time

1/10

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.)

N/A

1/10

9a. Would you recommend E.ON to a friend?

9b. Why?

Quite a few redundancies recently. The area im in is secure at time of writing, but seeing many colleagues leave, no matter their skill level, is difficult

10. What tips or advice would you give to others applying to E.ON?

Be yourself, and show that you can work across different areas, juggling multiple tasks. EON is now EON NEXT, and they are looking for employees that can work across multiple teams and take ownership of jobs
