Anyone who completed the BBC Production apprenticeship got any tips?

I was offered a production apprentice role in London, signed my contract a couple days ago and I’m super excited plus nervous. Has anyone here completed the apprenticeship and can they share their experiences of their roles and any tips

Hi, I haven't done the BBC apprenticeship myself however I am a current apprentice. My number one tip would be to just try and socialise as much as possible once you join the company. The more you network with people, the more opportunities will be available to you. And everyone in the working world is really nice so it's nothing to worry about. Just try and meet as many people as you can and it'll be really beneficial for your future.

If you want, I can send a link which has tips for preparing for an apprenticeship and tactics to leave the best impression on your first day. Let me know if you'd be interested in that and I'll send it over. Otherwise, good luck with your apprenticeship.

It’s against TOS on here to share. you get unlimited time to record it i believe so you get a lot of time to practice!
