Yeah, it's a strange one though - I was already freelancing for two years when I came in to this job, but couldn't find a job elsewhere without a degree in the time scale I had (I was jobless, broke and homeless at one point in the last 9 months) so I had to find any job I could in the field (I was determined, I came back to the UK to work in tech, I was going to do it, there was no compromise) and ultimately found this apprenticeship.

It's a decent arrangement, he expected a tech illiterate teenager and instead got an experienced PHP programmer with Adwords and Analytics qualifications.
