🌟 It's Youth Employment Week! 🌟 Today's theme is "Grow" and we're excited to introduce Sky Parrott, one of our Degree Apprentices in Business Management, currently working as a Maintenance Team member. 🌱✨ Q: How has being an apprentice helped you grow both professionally and personally? Being an apprentice has definitely improved my confidence in myself and in my work. Although I performed well academically and worked hard within my roles, I used to have a lot of self-doubt which impacted my relationship with myself and my team. This course has helped me understand who I am as a leader, and having supportive people around me has really improved my mindset. 💪💼 Q: How did you discover your current career path, and what advice would you give to young people exploring their options? I discovered this opportunity internally at Haven. I worked my way up within the park, starting as a cleaner for a summer job, then becoming a restaurant team member. Networking within the complex led to me becoming a shift leader in the restaurant. I asked for growth opportunities and specifically aimed for this apprenticeship. My advice is to ask for what you want; opportunities won't find you magically. Know what you want and plan how to get it. 🌟🗺️ Q: What have you done to build your professional network (internally or externally), and how has it helped your career? My apprenticeship has allowed me to experience different departments, providing a huge networking opportunity. Working in different team dynamics, experiencing various communication styles, and meeting external connections have all developed the way I think and communicate. It's great to hear others' stories and how they developed within the company too! 🌐🤝 #YouthEmploymentWeek #CareerGrowth #Networking #SkillBuilding #FutureLeaders #YEW #Inspiration #NextGeneration #youthemploymentweek #YEW24 #YouthEmploymentWeek #CreatingOpportunityForAll #YouthCareers #InclusiveEmployment #CareerGrowth 🚀👩🏫👨🎓 https://lnkd.in/e4HHPeUv

🌟 Celebrating Youth Employment Week! 🌟 Today's theme is "Grow Day" and we had an inspiring Q&A session with Elisha Jacks, one of our Haven Degree-Apprentices in Business Management. 🌱✨ Q: How has being an apprentice helped you grow both professionally and personally? Professionally, being an apprentice has helped me develop many new skills. I've learned about different areas of the business, the systems and technology we use, and I've honed my communication, teamwork, and problem-solving skills while working in a professional environment. 📈💼 On a personal level, the experience has been equally rewarding. Rotating through different departments has allowed me to interact with a diverse group of people and appreciate various viewpoints. I've faced new challenges daily, building my resilience and adaptability, and learned to balance work responsibilities with my personal life and degree assignments. It’s equipping me with all the essential skills needed for my career growth. 🌟🧩 Q: How did you discover your current career path, and what advice would you give to young people exploring their options? My career path began with a part-time job while I was still in school. Initially, it was a way to earn some money and gain work experience, but I quickly fell in love with the company culture and the supportive environment at Haven. As I took on more responsibilities, I realised how much I enjoyed working here, which led to my decision to stay with the company full-time and pursue this apprenticeship. My advice to young people is to be open to exploring opportunities that come your way. Reflect on the type of work environment where you feel you would thrive and take every opportunity to learn new skills and gain knowledge. These steps have led me to where I am now! 🌍🔍 Q: What have you done to build your professional network (internally or externally), and how has it helped your career? I've volunteered for cross-departmental projects to meet and work with team members outside my immediate team, broadening my internal network. Being on this degree has not only helped me gain new skills but also provided opportunities to connect with colleagues across the UK who share similar professional interests. Having a wide professional network allows me to learn from others' experiences, take their advice, and create more opportunities for myself, which helps in developing my professional skills. 🌐🤗 #YouthEmploymentWeek #CareerGrowth #Networking #SkillBuilding #FutureLeaders #YEW #Inspiration #NextGeneration #youthemploymentweek #YEW24 #YouthEmploymentWeek #CreatingOpportunityForAll #YouthCareers #InclusiveEmployment #CareerGrowth 🚀👩🏫👨🎓Youth Employment UK https://lnkd.in/e4HHPeUv

🌟 Youth Employment Week 🌟 Today's Focus: Growing Your Career and Connections 🌱🤝 We're excited to share insights from Emily Baker, Digital Learning Administrator and Apprentice: Digital Learning Designer Level 5 Q: How has being an apprentice helped you grow both professionally and personally? The apprenticeship has allowed me to learn new skills and understand the theory behind my role. Moving from a business admin apprenticeship to my current position, I now have an official qualification in Digital Learning. This has validated my experience and taught me new methods and behaviors. Additionally, I've built a strong network of peers in similar roles, which is great for sharing ideas and advice. 🌟📚🤝 Q: How did you discover your current career path, and what advice would you give to young people exploring their options? I started at Bourne in the L&D team with a business administration level 2 apprenticeship. After completing it, I stayed on as an L&D administrator, eventually transitioning to digital learning. I love being creative, and this role allowed me to incorporate design into my work. My advice: Don’t limit yourself to one path. Explore different options and go with the flow. You'll find the right path, often in unexpected ways. 🚀🎨🌟 Q: Can you share a transferable skill that has been crucial in your career, and how you developed it during your apprenticeship? Time Management. This skill is vital during an apprenticeship as you need to complete 6 hours of off-the-job learning weekly. Developing this skill has been crucial for me. ⏰📋✨ Q: What have you done to build your professional network, and how has it helped your career? Joining LinkedIn is a great way to network externally. Internally, getting involved in various business activities, like pioneering for Haven, has helped me meet people outside my usual interactions. These relationships have been valuable for understanding different areas of the business. 🌐🤝🌟 #YEW #YouthEmploymentWeek #CareerGrowth #Networking #SkillBuilding #FutureLeaders #Inspiration #NextGeneration #youthemploymentweek #YEW24 #YouthEmploymentWeek #CreatingOpportunityForAll #YouthCareers #InclusiveEmployment #CareerGrowth 🚀👩🏫👨🎓Youth Employment UK https://lnkd.in/e4HHPeUv
