Broadband and mobile provider Virgin Media<\/a> and O2<\/a> (VMO2) have this morning responded to the UK Government’s recently announced plan, which calls for the creation of 50,000 apprenticeships across the country for young people, by opening new applications for a wide range of early career roles.<\/p>\n

The provider, which recently revealed that they’d hired their 1,000th apprentice (here<\/a>), said the new the jobs \u2013 available nationwide including in London, Leeds, Reading, Manchester, Bristol, Birmingham and Glasgow \u2013 would combine work with on-the-job training and dedicated study time across roles such as field technicians, network engineering opportunities, security and the anti-fraud team.<\/p>\n

The field technician roles at Virgin Media<\/a> require no prior experience or formal qualifications. The company uses a fully \u2018blind recruitment\u2019 approach to remove potential bias from shortlisting and ensure applicants are assessed fairly and solely on their potential.<\/p>\n

Karen Handley, Head of Future Careers at VMO2, said:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cAt Virgin Media<\/a> O2<\/a>, our people work day-in and day-out to upgrade the UK and provide the best services for customers.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re continuing to invest in jobs, skills and opportunities for the next-generation of talented people from all backgrounds, with our apprentices and graduates playing a vital role in keeping the country connected.<\/p>\n

If you want to earn while you learn, develop specialist skills and join a team that\u2019s building the UK\u2019s digital future, we\u2019d love to hear from you.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
