Technician Science apprentice Review

Mostly lab based however involved in team meetings and personal development tasks quite often too. There is also 20% of the time spent on uni work.

Yes, I have learnt more than imaginable and only been here a few months. I'm so glad I chose this programme. I have learnt so many lab skills and developed so well as a person with amazing support.

I love my programme, work is never a dread and I love what I do, as well as the people around me. The culture is fantastic and has by far exceeded all expectations. My managers have created a great environment for me to thrive in.

There is lots of induction and training for safety and awareness at first and lots of support for studying. My managers always make time and have support sessions with me weekly. The uni side of things could be more organised but on the whole it is great.

An incredible amount, with weekly catch-ups and my managers and everybody around me alwys offering support to help me or teach me in order for me to excel. I also have a mentor that is a director in the USA allowing connections for me to grow

They are there for support however the learning style could be different, more learning interaction would be better.

Yes, of course some topics more than others however my managers have been great with helping me link in what I learn at uni and applying it to the workplace, for example I studied cell biology and they helped arranged for me to visit another lab with expertise in this.

Yes, there are so many societies, committees and groups that you an become apart of, all of which host events, webinars, fun and sociable activities and impose great opportunities to meet new people

Yes

I have not got a bad word to say about it, I have had the best support and learnt such fantastic things, I am so proud to be a part of the company.

Be yourself, and be confident. Do not be afraid to show off your passion for science.
