Work Experience & Apprenticeships


Work Experience
Over the years we've hosted a number of work experience students here at Betty's Books and Devon Art Supplies. We are able to tailor the period of your stay with us to suit your core interest whether that be in business admin, high street retail, the arts sector or bookselling.
There are many elements to running the shop that include things like: customer service, online retail, marketing, social media management, business admin, stock ordering and general day to day upkeep tasks. Each of which you will have the chance to experience.
If you are interested in having your work exprience placement here with us please contact Kerri-Ann Betty via [email protected] or 01297 624246
We hope that when you finish your work experience with us you will feel as though you’ve had a realistic insight into the reality of running a high street shop as well as what it is like working in the arts sector and bookselling world. We hope you will enjoy your time with us and that it will help you work out what career path you might like to pursue.
