i am currently a student thinking to apply to some of the companies and realised i dont do computing but want to do it at degree apprenticerhship level whats your advice when answering the questions?

Hey. I have a friend in a similar position to you. He has built up a genuine interest in the computer science and technology over the last few years listening to lectures and programming in his free time. With apprenticeships, they are looking for an interest in technology and some evidence of this. So I would say think of a few examples where your passion and commitment to technology has shown and use those examples to answer questions. Maybe its a lecture you listened and you've started reading about AI, or you build websites in your free time or whatever else. But passion is key. This is what I have gathered from talking to other apprentices at careers events.

Hope that helps!

What companies are you thinking of applying to?

Hey. I applied to KPMG and they said because they have a lot of applications they were going to see the results of those applications and let me know if I could progress me to the next stage.

How are your applications going?
