I got a missed phone call from them a few moments ago.. rang them back but no one answered. I think i'm on the reserve list now???


That happened to me , missed the call in school, phoned them back and left a message and got a phone call for my offer almost instantly. If you didn't leave a message call them back and leave one just saying your name and asking them to call you back when they can

I thought it started at 24,000, said that on the brochure but may have went up slightly since minimum wage just increased. Different for each scheme though

last year it stated 24k on their job advertisement. But this year it just says "competitive salary"


Yeah I know someone starting this heaf with another company and they are on £26,000. I'm thinking that's maybe what we'll get

Oh k thanks bro I just saw this on an average salary on indeed but that was probs wrong thanks for letting me know. Seriously it's so hard to find just the salary I've been searching everywhere but 24000 sounds more right. Any1 know what we'll end up on at the end of the 5 years or is it like a raise every year,?

I asked ChatGPT. This was the answer:

Apprentices start with a salary of around £17,000.

The salary can increase over the course of the apprenticeship, potentially reaching up to £30,000 upon completion.

Each year, as apprentices gain more skills and experience, and possibly as they complete certain educational components of the apprenticeship, their salary is likely to increase. The details of these increments are typically outlined in the employment contract or discussed as part of the induction process into the apprenticeship.
It's advisable to directly contact BAE Systems or refer to the specific apprenticeship listings for precise details on salary progression, as these figures can be influenced by various factors including the specific area of aerospace engineering and regional employment conditions.
But dont forget, chatpgt is always wrong about present situations

Thanks alot this helped alot, I think I will eventually just call and ask but it's good to know imagine starting on 26k well be rolling in it 🤣. Na but seriously hope it's decent. Also this is a reach but how will raises work once we get the job after our aprenticship and how long will it take to see something like 40 to 50k if possible at all.

Will know once we get the contracts out, hopefully the end of May. I was told in late February would be a bit of a wait for the contracts but end of May will have been 3 months

Ok that makes sense because they told me that they would get back to me by the end of May in an email but they called in April so I think that's about right.
