18.For many reasons,I didn't choose to go to university like most of my family members,schoolmates and even best friends.I can't say that I didn't have moments of doubt about my decision.As the last term of school was coming to a close,I began to feel very anxious about the choice I made to be different and start an apprenticeship(学徒).Although my A-level results day was the one that I felt extremely proud of,I knew that the general feeling from most of my teachers was disappointment.I completed my application,did a series of ability tests and interviews,and at last nine months later-I began an apprenticeship with Sellafield Ltd.
As soon as I started,I knew straight away that I made the right decision.From the people I met,to the on-the-job training that I was experiencing,I began to feel a real sense of purpose and could see a successful career in an industry that I found so interesting and challenging,paving the way in front of me.I never thought when I was in sixth grade that I would be working in the nuclear industry,but now I can't imagine working anywhere else.
Since finishing my apprenticeship over two years ago,I've had countless opportunities to develop myself both academically and personally.I've bought my first home; I was chosen to be a part of the Government's Get In Go Far apprenticeship campaign,and offered an amazing and unique secondment(人员借调) with the Environment,Health,Safety and Quality department at Sellafield.
I have no doubt that without my apprenticeship I wouldn't be in the position I am today,but equally I know that it was only the beginning for me.
My apprenticeship inspired me to explore different career paths in the nuclear industry,and it gave me the confidence to know that I can succeed in shifting from one position to another.
