To celebrate the week’s focus on employment and guidance, here are some top tips on what questions you can ask your career team, job coach or training provider to up your employment opportunities!
What does a great CV and cover letter look like?
Creating a standout CV and cover letter is crucial to making a strong first impression. A great CV is clear, concise and tailored to the job. It highlights key skills, achievements and experience in a structured format, using bullet points for readability. Strong action verbs and measurable results make an impact, while a professional layout ensures easy scanning. Customising each CV for the role and keeping it error-free can boost your job prospects significantly.
How do I prepare for an interview?
Interviews can feel daunting and not knowing what to expect can add to the stress. Preparation is key! Research the type of interview, the company and the role to ensure you feel confident and ready. Familiarise yourself with the job description and consider common questions you may be asked. For additional support, book an appointment for a mock interview at your local Careers Hub!
Is an Apprenticeship for me?
