Has anyone who got an offer for tech sheffield received the onboarding emails? In the phone call they said it would take a week or something (maybe they said two weeks, I can't remember) but I haven't received anything since then


I received a timeline email from them on Monday. I was told they’d send contracts out 3 weeks after my phone call but that was 3 weeks ago. I also haven’t been asked to give any of my details for the vetting process yet.

Yes I’m planning on relocating, why are you not sure if you can?

I asked the guy who called me if i could relocate and he said no because the role is based in sheffield

I’m sorry I’m confused. Why wouldn’t you be able to relocate to Sheffield for the role? Loads of apprentices do

Ohh I see, when I said relocating I meant moving away from home. I’m moving to Sheffield for the role and probably going to be living in a house share.

Oh fair enough. I’ll probably have to do that too

I did my assessment centre this Monday, I was told I will receive a feedback report on the same day but I still have not been able to!!

Should I be concerned?

For tech, AC was the last stage. Not sure about other roles though, they might be different for somewhere like London as they are probably more competitive.

Congratulations!
Hope you don't mind me asking a few questions:
For the AC did you have to do a presentation or share your screen?
Do you know if you have Prep time are you being assessed during this?
For the Degree do you know which University?

Uni is LIBF which is not really a Uni. It’s more an institution that specialises in getting people to banking and finance careers

So for the technology degree apprenticeship, we will be studying at LIBF and not Sheffield Hallam University?

Also does anyone know what the salary is and if the role consists of using a cloud service provider like AWS or Azure?

I haven't even received the timeline email. I might drop them an email to see when they send out contracts, I have a feeling they might be altering the contract for some thing or another, or they are waiting for all the spots to be filled before sending them out.

not sure what the salary is, I wasn't really paying attention to the phone call when they called cause I was in the middle of a private study, but in terms of the cloud service provider, I think they let you rotate between business areas like cyber, engineering and data and then you can choose an area to work in, at least that's what my interviewers told me in the ved.

for tech sheffield:
There was no presentation, and I never had to share my screen
during the prep time, if you are referring to the activities at the end of the interview, I don't think they are assessing you, but you have to keep your camera and mic on so they know you aren't cheating, but they might notice how you are preparing your response, because I asked if I can use some paper to make notes about the information given
For the degree, honestly I have no clue anymore, I've seen different people saying different things, I thought it was ada college with a digital technology solutions degree

Has anyone heard back from Wealth and Personal Banking London. I got an email saying I achieved the benchmark on 28th February and 2 emails saying I am under consideration and hence apologising for their wait but nothing since

Yhh same, they said interviews end on April, idk if they meant start of April or end of April…

i did some research and yes its with ada college and not sheffield hallam. we may have to go to london for 1 week then back to sheffield for 7-8 weeks on a rotational basis but im not sure how accurate this is as this information was posted last year (2023 cohort)
