Hello, has anyone, or someone they know, come across work experience in quantity surveying? I am currently in year 13 and after finishing sixth form, I will apply for degree apprenticeships in quantity surveying. I would think that some work experience would give me an advantage in applying.
Has anyone got any ideas or suggestions on who to contact and how to structure my messages to companies in hope that they offer work experience in the summer?
Thank you.

Ring the office up, tell the receptionist that you are a student looking for work experience in the commercial department, and you’d just like 5 minutes on the phone with the Commercial Manager or Commercial Director to see if that would be possible.
Ringing up gains respect, as it’s a lot more daunting to do rather than just emailing. It’s also a lot more personal, and people are more likely to help you that way.
