Degree apprenticeships – everything you need to know.
Degree apprenticeships are undeniably the future… In this video I will cover the following topics: Why should you consider it? When should you apply? Where should you apply? How should you apply to get the best chances? and my experiences and thoughts so far being in the first year of my degree apprenticeship? [The time stamps for each are currently being displayed]
Why should you consider it?
Degree apprenticeships is the model of education that will inevitably replace typical university courses. They are growing exponentially in popularity and are quickly becoming available in all fields. The long reigning conventional university system has many flaws that degree apprenticeships solve because in degree apprenticeships you do: gain real experience, earn a salary, get your tuition covered by the government, avoid all types of loans and to top it off, you get a fully recognised degree as well as an offer for a full time job at the end.
Someone who has taken a degree apprenticeship will be much more prepared and qualified to get into the real world than standard university students. This is because when you are an apprentice, you are placed directly in the work environment with a metaphorical shield around you – you can make mistakes and learn from them – in fact you are almost encouraged to make mistakes early on so that you don’t make them later in your career.
What attracted me personally is how practically based apprenticeships are – some things are better learnt theoretically and then applied practically e.g., medicine and law. But undeniably, most things are better learnt practically [give an analogy?].
There are more things that can be said – but I think its time to move on…
When should you apply?
+) My friends and I personally began applying around mid-October. Definitely try applying as soon as you can – by the time I discovered some apprenticeships, their deadline already passed – so don’t miss out.
Where should you apply?
The government website, indeed, google search level 6 degree apprenticeships, google search a particular degree e.g. digital technology solutions. Most apprenticeships must be applied to directly through the website. Here are some places I applied to for degree apprenticeships [Show an image].
(Side note: For my fellow Muslims – be wary with where you apply to, because some companies may deal with haram e.g., investment banking – I personally still applied to these places just for the sake of honing my interviewing skills but withdrew my application later in the process)
How should you apply to get the best chances?
Build your portfolio with free online courses – this will highlight you from the rest of the
Candidates,
master interviews by practicing commonly asked questions – this will help with nervousness and also allow you to give much better answers,
create an incredible CV - the employer knows you won’t have much experience – but whatever you do have, sell it nicely in the cv. Bear in mind, a CV is your employers first impression of you, definitely don’t skip out on putting effort into it.
apply to as many places as possible – The more you apply, the better and more comfortable you get with the process
