Network and digital solutions engineer Review

Currently I am with the IPComms team within BT, although this will change as the apprenticeship progresses. I currently deal with issues that customers have had with their systems that have gone through our first line team and need a bit more help.

Yes we have leant a lot of new skills and sharpened our existing skills. Learning the job while actually doing it is far superior to learning in a class room. Apprentices also seem to get higher grades while only being in education 3 weeks a year.

Every day is a lot of fun you will learn a few new things every day and work with great people.

Very well organised. We have key skills we need to hit as part of our program BT have produced a list of which departments will cover which skill so at the end of the 4 years you will have covered them all.

A great amount we get one full day a week to focus on our Uni work and multiple times during the rest of the week I am able to take myself off for an hour or two just to make sure I am on top of any extra work that has been set. This is encouraged.

A good amount we can always message our tutors and see them on a weekly basis.

It gives us the theory that we can then try and use in practice at our job. This is my first year so I am not too far along yet but the Networking course gave me a better understanding on how traffic passes through the platform I work on at BT

Yes a lot! Drinks, gaming tournaments, pool competitions and lots of industry lectures.

Yes

My sister recommended them to me as she worked there and had nothing but good things to say about them. I have also found my time to be excellent there.

Keep applying they take on new apprentices every year and if you intend to get a degree doing it any other way leads you to debt! As someone who is a bit older and has done Uni before this is a far better way to go about it!
