I knew I wanted a degree, which is why I dismissed the idea of apprenticeships in the first place. But then I found out about the degree apprenticeship program with BMW Group and instantly applied! With this apprenticeship, I get 4 years experience with an incredible company, making meaningful change and a degree with no debt!
I am training to be a quality specialist for the Powertrain and Driving Dynamics team. On a day-to-day basis, I work with other quality specialists who test pre-release cars for BMW.
The highlight of my career so far was being flown to Germany for a week to do test driver training!
The biggest learning curve was adapting to professional life after sixth form. There's a big difference between working in school and working for a company!
"The tutors and other associates were very helpful with the transition to working life, so it didn't feel like too much of a challenge in the end."
I have four different groups of associates I can go to if I ever need help. I have the training provider to aid me with my studies; the apprentice management department looking out for my career path; my placement manger (the person who I'll be working for) and general HR who are always happy to help with any other issues.
As an Engineering Technician apprentice, I was hired by a manager on the site on my interview day. He has a vision for my professional development that includes a plan with the team that covers years after my apprenticeship finishes.
"I have regular and open conversations about my future with the business."
