Lots of support from the company
Lots of different work tasks to complete

Drafting legal documents

Worst

I do not believe there is anything bad about my job role. There are some things that I do not enjoy as much, but I believe it is because I am not used to them yet. Such as time recording every piece of work I do or working full time hours is a commitment I am not yet adjusted to.

What is the annual salary for this role?

Starting salary: £15,000 - £17,000

Current salary: £15,000 - £17,000

What advice would you give to someone applying to this role?

If you are considering applying for this role, my advice to you would be; make sure you are prepared to work hard. This is because although you are an apprentice, you are given a lot of responsibility and it is expected that you complete a certain amount of work, the same as other employees. Although this may seem daunting, you are given a lot of support and the work is really interesting with lots of different tasks to complete.

Do you have any interview tips?

Before my interview, I was emailed by the company to let me know what will happen during the interview. I had to complete a written assessment in timed conditions and I had to prepare a presentation about myself.
