Scroll to see replies

And what subjects ?

Predicted. I'm just surprised though because the entry requirements are ABB which is by far the highest for any apprenticeship I have seen.

I have little experience too in coding although they are open too people with little experience. I just guess you have to be honest but open to learning. Are those grades you’ve already achieved or predicted ?

Hmmm yeah I was thinking. I got AAB. How was your video interview. Mine was a bit waffley haha. I’m still hoping I get invited to the in person interview though. Well done for getting this far.

Thanks I appreciate it and hope you get through. In all honesty I can’t remember my video interview as I’ve done so many now haha but it was waffley. In all honesty after doing more research I’m not sure if this apprenticeship is for me but il go to the interview and hopefully that changes my mind.

By the way the interviews are scheduled for the end of April and start of May so hopefully you should hear back from them before then.

Mines on the 30th and in the morning. And I would try not to stress if I was you as long as you prepare you should be fine. Saying that the fact that there’s 3 interviews is quite daunting haha.

There’s still plenty of time until the interviews and I only got invited yesterday so you still have a good chance.

Hi, since applying to apprenticeships are sort of still a very new thing to most I thought I’d make a thread so we could all help each other and check if we apply for similar apprenticeships and if anyone gets interviews etc before others and what their experience was.

Anyone’s welcome and current apprentices advice would be highly appreciated I just thought this would be useful to current applicants to deal with worries.

I am planning on applying mainly to the digital and technological solutions degree apprenticeship with Maybe also applying to the chartered manager degree apprenticeships. Both starting hopefully in late 2019.

Just a quick introduction- I’m doing A-level biology, English language and sociology. And got A,B,A.

I have seen some brill responses from current apprentices and so I would highly appreciate if you could share some wisdom this year as well.

Some quick questions If you want to make yourself known- what subjects do you do, which degree apprenticeship are you applying for and why did you pick that’s degree apprenticeship.

Thanks and hope to see you all in the thread!

Hello, I am so late to this thread but it's something that I really need right now. Okay, it's strange how much of a similar position I am in to you now. I have just finished my A Levels in June (English Language, Sociology and IT.) I got half decent grades, and now I'm looking for a degree apprenticeship. The DA that caught my eye was the CMDA (chartered management degree apprenticeship). I have been looking into companies like Morrisons, Nestle, IBM etc, but no applications are open yet - so I'm having to wait.

I would be so incredibly grateful if you had any tips or if you have any good suggestions of companies for me to try seeing as though I'm in the same position you seemed to be in a year ago! We did similar A Levels and I want to go down the same degree apprenticeship route. :smile:
