TGT MEETS…Drew Bolger Primmer OF FUTURE PLANNING

This is a special edition of TGt Meets, celebrating National Apprenticeship Week! We heard from Drew Bolger Primmer, a Client Services Assistant at Future Planning Wealth Management.

1. What inspired you to pursue an apprenticeship?

Education was not cutting it – didn’t feel like I was progressing at all.

2. Which field are you working in and studying?

Finances industry

3. What is one thing you look forward to when going to work?

The diversity of tasks.

4. Can you describe a time when you faced a difficult challenge in your apprenticeship, and how you overcame it?

When I joined I had no experience in working at all. The main challenge I faced was adapting to the working environment. I overcame this by observing the more experienced members of staffed around me and following their lead.

5. How do you approach working with others, especially those who may have more experience than you?

I try to treat them as people so as to remain friendly, but I also remain humble as I have an understanding that they will know more then me in certain areas and therefore there is lots to learn from them!

6. What is a long-term career goal that you have, and how will your apprenticeship help you achieve it?

Just to become a respectable working figure. This apprenticeship connects me with people who have developed their working status for many years to being while respected themselves and I hope to mimic that.

7. What’s one thing you hope to gain from this apprenticeship experience?

I hope to gain the working habits which create a strong candidate for any job role and allow me to excel in any and all fields.
