What is your job role and what department\/service area do you work in? <\/strong><\/h3>\n

I work as a Recruitment Coordinator in our Temp Solutions department in our People and Culture Directorate!<\/p>\n

What are your role responsibilities?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

We recruit temporary workers in a variety of different job roles throughout Devon County Council.<\/p>\n

What apprenticeship are you\/have you completed and what did your training look like? i.e., weekly training on the training providers site, block release, remote learning.. <\/strong><\/h3>\n

I am currently working towards my apprenticeship (Level 3 HR Support) through Exeter College, I attend the Future Skills Centre every Tuesday, this is a great way to get to know other students and you build a great relationship with your college tutor!<\/p>\n

What have been the benefits to being an apprentice?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

I have been able to widen my knowledge within HR and get familiar with different departments whilst building my \u2018Off the Job\u2019 hours for my apprenticeship. Once I have completed my apprenticeship I will have my CIPD qualification and also a Level 3 apprenticeship, this will be great for career development! You also learn about other students experiences with HR and how different companies and organisations can operate.<\/p>\n

Why did you choose to become an apprentice at Devon County Council?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

An apprenticeship really appealed to me for my own development and my career development, I only started my role with DCC in January 2024 in HR so I am learning a lot and my apprenticeship helps me to understand all areas of HR rather than just the area you are working in!<\/p>\n

Do you have any tips for anyone looking to apply for an apprenticeship?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

I would 100% recommend doing an apprenticeship to anyone who is interested, I have found DCC to be very supportive and give you the relevant time you need to complete your work \/ assignments. It is a great opportunity to learn and put to practice the skills you learn at college in your day to day role!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"casestudy_category":[18,2,15,6,61],"class_list":["post-14054","wd_case_study","type-wd_case_study","status-publish","hentry","wd_casecat-apprentices-and-graduates","wd_casecat-apprenticeships","wd_casecat-human-resources","wd_casecat-professional-and-support-roles","wd_casecat-recruitment-and-retention"],"acf":{"job_title":"Recruitment Coordinator ","area_of_work":"People and Culture"},"category_details":[{"id":18,"name":"Apprentices and Graduates","slug":"apprentices-and-graduates","link":"https:\/\/www.devon.gov.uk\/workingfordevon\/casestudy\/category\/apprentices-and-graduates\/"},{"id":2,"name":"Apprenticeships","slug":"apprenticeships","link":"https:\/\/www.devon.gov.uk\/workingfordevon\/casestudy\/category\/apprenticeships\/"},{"id":15,"name":"Human Resources","slug":"human-resources","link":"https:\/\/www.devon.gov.uk\/workingfordevon\/casestudy\/category\/human-resources\/"},{"id":6,"name":"Professional and support roles","slug":"professional-and-support-roles","link":"https:\/\/www.devon.gov.uk\/workingfordevon\/casestudy\/category\/professional-and-support-roles\/"},{"id":61,"name":"Recruitment and Retention","slug":"recruitment-and-retention","link":"https:\/\/www.devon.gov.uk\/workingfordevon\/casestudy\/category\/recruitment-and-retention\/"}],"featured_image":false,"publishpress_future_workflow_manual_trigger":{"enabledWorkflows":[]},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.devon.gov.uk\/workingfordevon\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/casestudy\/14054","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.devon.gov.uk\/workingfordevon\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/casestudy"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.devon.gov.uk\/workingfordevon\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/wd_case_study"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/www.devon.gov.uk\/workingfordevon\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/casestudy\/14054\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":17093,"href":"https:\/\/www.devon.gov.uk\/workingfordevon\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/casestudy\/14054\/revisions\/17093"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.devon.gov.uk\/workingfordevon\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=14054"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"wd_casecat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.devon.gov.uk\/workingfordevon\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/casestudy_category?post=14054"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
