Zanko Rahimi
I applied to GP with my 10A secondary school certificate.
I worked at GP for the first time in 2014 through a recruitment company, and I was amazed at how corrugated board is manufactured and processed. I was keen to find out & know more, so I decided to apply for an apprenticeship at GP.
The great thing about this versatile occupation is the practical, independent and self-responsible work, directly on and with the product. Each evening after work, you know what you have done for the company. And personally, I find it good that you get to work on all the different machines during your apprenticeship, allowing you to discover your favourite tasks during your apprenticeship. I, for one, find working on the punch press very enjoyable.
Enjoyment of technology, punctuality, forward thinking, initiative, ability to work in a team, critical thinking skills and spatial awareness.

That includes the “AbH”, for example, (apprenticeship assistance scheme), where we apprentices are able to learn for school. Each Friday, the apprentices meet with their instructors to have the report books signed and can ask questions that may have arisen either at work or school
I would like to have my own shift, be a good machine operator and learn even more about my occupation.

I gained the FOR (qualification for admission to technical college), before completing an apprenticeship in business and applying for an apprenticeship at GP.

One of my favourite tasks is the maintenance and verification of quality standards.
Being able to understand technical processes and procedures is an advantage.
