Common questions
How many apprenticeships are there in Wakefield?
It changes weekly — employers advertise year-round rather than in one annual intake. This page counts every live opportunity within 20 miles of Wakefield and updates as roles are added and filled.
Do I need to live in Wakefield to apply?
No. What matters to employers is that you can get to work reliably. Most of the roles listed here are within commuting distance of Wakefield, and each advert shows how far it is from the centre.
Will I be paid?
Yes. Apprentices are employees and must be paid at least the apprentice National Minimum Wage — many employers pay considerably more. You also get holiday, sick pay and a contract like any other employee.
Do I need qualifications to start?
Often none at all for an intermediate apprenticeship. Some employers ask for GCSEs in English and maths, and many will let you work towards those alongside the job if you don't have them yet.
Is it free to apply through GetMyFirstJob?
Yes — always free for candidates. You apply directly to the employer or their training provider, and there are no agency fees at any point.
