Hear what our Current and Alumni Apprentices have to say

"The Degree Level Apprenticeship is a brilliant pathway towards a professional career. With blended learning throughout, the scheme has allowed me to develop and reinforce skills within the workplace. DHL has encouraged me to explore different opportunities and learn more about the wider business."
Kieran Puri
Degree Level Apprentice
“On my apprenticeship everyone has been incredibly friendly and have treated me like I have been here years rather than someone brand new whilst still giving me all the support I need to start my development. DHL supply chain is such an exciting business and covers every different type of business that you could possibly imagine, you also get to see lots of different sites and business units when you start. The main highlights in the first few months are definitely the three days at Whittlebury hall as well as the introduction to my business unit in Birmingham, and so far it has been really good.”
Olle Shipp​​​​​​​
Commercial Procurement Apprentice
“I am currently in my 3rd and final year of my Creative Digital Design Degree Apprenticeship. I have found that the balance between the degree and work a great learning curve to manage my time effectively. I have also found that I have been able to use the skills learnt on my degree course and implement them to live projects at work. The skills I have been able to learn from a working environment has been invaluable to my career.
 
At DHL, while being an apprentice I have had many opportunities to work on live projects and also overcome challenges, such as, having to do presentations to a room of colleagues. A highlight since starting my apprenticeship is learning new design software skills to create videos, website and info graphics for live projects.”
Daniel Mobsby

The opportunity to explore different Business units is always available and everyone is so willing to help!"
