Since today is International Youth Day we decided to ask our newest apprentice some questions about herself and the start of her J Thomson journey….
Tell us a bit about yourself? (Where do you live/Where did you go to school)
I’m from East Kilbride. I went to Calderglen High School in East Kilbride.
How long have you been an apprentice at J Thomson?
I started at J Thomson in April and started my apprenticeship in July.
How did you find out about the position?
My uncle comes in to repair the presses and he told me about it.
Were you interested in print before or did you set yourself a challenge?
I didn’t even know this was a career before, when I heard about it I wanted to try it.
What are you liking best about the role?
Learning about all the new things and meeting lots of new people.
Are there any areas you find harder than others?
Remembering all the stuff I’ve learned and getting up very early.
What else did you consider as a career?
I never really knew what I wanted to do.
What do you like to do outside work?
I like cooking and I go out with my friends a lot.
Where do you see yourself in 5 years?
Finishing my apprenticeship and continuing to learn new things in my new role.
