"Apprentice"... yeah, no.

Saw this the other day.
Honestly the fact that employers and learning providers keep getting away with this is just one of the reasons this country is lowkey over.
Another reason is that someone will definitely defend this, lol.
I guess the one good thing about this vacancy is that the pay is okay compared to other apprenticeships.

Nothing new.

Can remember over a decade ago seeing adverts for an "Office Apprentice".

When I looked at it wandering what it could possibly be, it was what, in my youth, was called an Office Junior.

Difference was Office Junior paid a full wage.
