📝📚 APPRENTICESHIPS IN THE WORKPLACE 📚📝 Did you know apprentices are not just for 16-24 year olds? Did you know you can complete an apprenticeship alongside your current employment through your employer? There is a myth that apprenticeships are only for 'young people', and that is absolutely ❌ FALSE ❌ An apprenticeship can be completed by anyone who is ➡ 16 years old or older ➡ Not in full-time education These are the only TWO requirements to start looking into an apprenticeship. There are many different levels starting from Level 2 - Level 7, which are equivalent to GCSEs right up to Masters Degrees! (Each of these will have their own entry requirements) Here at ERIKS UK & Ireland, we not only employ dedicated apprentices who we will train alongside a learning provider, but our experienced employees who are already in the business can also complete apprenticeships! We offer a range of leadership and development apprenticeships, as well as bespoke apprenticeships for employees who want to grow and develop their skill set and knowledge within a specific area. If you are looking for an employer who truly cares about your development, check out our careers page for more information ⬇ https://lnkd.in/eF8iPzfE

The definition of Servant Leader.

Excited to begin my journey at C.W. Mackie plc! Today marked the first day of my new job, and I was fortunate to attend an insightful orientation led by our CMO. One piece of advice that truly resonated with me was the importance of honing our skills in creative problem-solving. As the saying goes, even the best-laid plans can encounter unexpected challenges. It's crucial to be prepared to face these issues head-on, and that's where creative problem-solving comes into play. By continuously enhancing this skill, we can navigate through uncertainties and turn obstacles into opportunities. #CreativeProblemSolving #InnovationMatters #NewBeginnings #CareerDevelopment #CWMackiePlc 🌟

Q: Describe your initial perspective of the career you are interning. My first perspective of working here was a little different. I had been working at strawz for a while now but an intern was not what i expected. Doing the reviews and posting pictures is a little different then just going to work everyday. Though this is a great skill to have in your life, my perspective changed. I am now focusing more on the things I can do to be a better employee while working!

Roll up, roll up!
