Hi there!

We found another one lol . I made this forum so that anyone who was starting could find the other apprentices aswell so far we have three including yourself. Tell me a bit about your self and why you chose to come onto this scheme?

Nothing fancy really, I'm from Newcastle and I really didn't know what to do with my life, so I saw this opportunity and took it. I really don't have a technical background, but I guess I must have made a good first impression!
Also, I've been trying to do some of the courses on the my learning platform, but under the software engineering section it says I cant take part in it, is it the same for everyone else?

Whereabouts in Newcastle are you from (if you don't mind me asking!)? There are no courses on offer for me either so I'm slightly unsure of where to start.

Same here i am just learning Java on my own because i have heard on a video i watched on you tube that we might learn Java first. I have not heard anything from them in a while have you? Did Jack get back to you on those questions that you asked a while ago?

That sounds good- I was deciding between Java & Python too. They mentioned a few courses at the interview that we could do too, I'll see if I can find them and I'll put them on here. I haven't heard anything from Jack at all even the support team of the onboarding portal isn't replying to my emails.

Guess it must be extremely busy? Hope we do hear back soon though

Yeah i guess so, watch how we get bombarded two weeks before our start date lol.

Not looking forward to it 😂😂 have you received any requests to send them additional things( they've asked for my A-level certificates and a few other things)?

Yeah i got that yesterday did not take that long, had to complete an internal CV as well.

Yeah it says the same for me. If you are not technical you can opt to do an extra year as a foundation to support your technical knowledge.

I'm from a little village along the coast, just outside of Newcastle, so not too far away

Have you been asked to provide an A- level enrollment letter too?

Yeah, they didn't bring it up, so I'm not too worried about my knowledge, I'm just trying to teach myself some thing now in preparation (although its harder than i thought!)

Urm not really. Also i have just realised our start date about two weeks away have you guys heard anything or received any information about our first day?
