Hi, that's a great question and nice to meet you. As Spencer has advised out of the 5 day working week, you dedicate 1 working day to complete your apprentice day. This can be worked from home or the office (dependant on your preference) As a business we will always support and guide you so if you ever need help there's plenty of people ready to provide a hand. In terms of the start date, our apprenticeship will start in September, there is no option to bring this forward to an earlier date unfortunately.

Maria would be able to provide more detail on the initial application process itself however from a Network Rail perspective once you have attended an interview we aim to provide an outcome within 48 hours (most of the time we let you know within 24 hours)
