I haven't applied yet because I'm busy, but I'm thinking of of applying to an apprenticeship with Siemens, Airbus, and JLR, maybe Rolls Royce.
As you can see, they're all engineering companies so I'll be applying within an engineering field and choosing to apply to aeronautical(Airbus), control(Siemens), manufacturing and product design(JLR).
What made me decide to apply was the financial and hands on aspect of the programme, although I'm quite academic. Hopefully, because I'm climbing the career ladder early on, I'll be able to be of great value afterwards.
