I applied online. I interviewed at Apprentify (Birmingham, England) in Dec 2024
Interview
1) Initial online interview with the Group Head of Marketing.
This was a general Q+A based on marketing experience, and how situations were handled.
2)In-person meeting with a Director at the local company (who Apprentify parents).
Informal discussion to go over CV and understand business need. Was asked to give some examples of marketing activity the company should be doing (not as a prepared task - was an off the cuff question)
Following interview, I followed up with the HR person who was leading on the role. I didn’t get a response for a few weeks (Christmas period). Following this, I was told I would hear back after they had a meeting in a few days. Although I followed up a couple of times, I never heard from them again.

Question 1
What offline marketing initiatives should we be implementing
I applied online. I interviewed at Apprentify (Manchester, England)
Interview
As an experienced trainer. I was surprised that I wasn't even given an interview after meeting 80 percent of their job description/criteria. Good apprenticeship trainers are hard to find. So I don't know what's going on there. Maybe dodged a bullet.
