United KingdomWhat I'm looking for
I'm a motivated and enthusiastic individual with a strong passion for technology, eager to kickstart my IT career through an apprenticeship. With a background in hospitality, I have developed excellent organizational skills and a proven ability to troubleshoot various computer issues. My journey in IT began with a Level 3 Computing qualification, where I gained hands-on experience in Networking, Data Analysis, and Microsoft Excel.
As I embark on my tech career, I am particularly interested in gaining exposure to real-world IT environments, especially in data and infrastructure management. I have a keen interest in cloud computing and networking, having enjoyed my college coursework in these areas. I believe that an apprenticeship will provide me with the structured learning and practical experience I need to thrive in the tech industry.
