“I really enjoyed this course. It was a good balance of information and lots of opportunities to practise and get actionable feedback. I liked how the host Trina took us through all the various modules. She explained everything in such a clear way and her energy throughout was fantastic. She get's 5 stars!”
“It’s been a worthwhile course that has given me good advice on job applications and interviews in general, as well as the Civil Service in particular.”
“The trainer Trina, was an exceptionally excellent and effective communicator, with a all round receptive attitude to teaching us the realities of approaching a job with the Civil Service from searching for a role to interview stage, as well listening and answering questions.”
“I spent a while trying to avoid this course, and in all honest I had low expectations. After exhausting my options I thought why not give it a chance. I must say I am highly impressed. Trina was very professional and organised, and I’m very happy I had her as a trainer. She I’ve very relatable and has a very good way of explaining things. I also never felt worried to ask for things to be repeated or explained which is unusual in a group setting. I also learnt so much new tips and tools that I will be implementing during my job search x”
“This is a fantastic course, and I have learned so much. I am now much more confident about the transferrable skills that I have and how to highlight them when I am applying for jobs. Trina, the trainer made everything clear and easy to understand, and it was an absolute pleasure to be in her class.”
“I would like to express my appreciation for Trina for the depth of knowledge and expertise she brought to the sessions. Your ability to explain complex concepts in a clear and accessible manner significantly enhanced my understanding of the subject matter. The real-world examples and case studies you incorporated were particularly helpful in illustrating key points and making the content more relatable.
You are fab and Strive is lucky to have you as a trainer”
“This was a brilliant course as tutor was very supportive and knowedgeable. The course was very good as it break down key components such as what is good team work and customer service. You really understand what these terms mean. Through practical and discussions you truely understand how to implement this in the workplace.”
“I thoroughly enjoyed the 5 day training, mainly because our tutor, Maria is an outstanding teacher. She made my experience fun and meaningful. It is alot of material to get through, but she said it would all make sense in the end. I am glad to say that it does and it has given me a new approach to re-entering the job market. I would recommend this training.”
“Trina's wealth of knowledge made the entire course experience comfortable for everyone, and her empathetic approach was evident. She dedicated time to thoroughly explain each section, always open to answering questions and providing clarification. Your insightful comments on our learning activities demonstrated a careful reading and offered valuable constructive feedback. I truly enjoyed the course, gaining valuable insights into applying for civil service jobs. Going back to the basics was beneficial, especially the breakdown of information into smaller sessions. This approach proved invaluable when crafting essential documents like CVs and cover letters, as we had unknowingly acquired a pre-existing foundation. I plan to apply these skills in the future. I highly recommend this training to anyone aspiring to join the civil service. I hope others have the opportunity to learn from Trina!”
“I thoroughly enjoyed my Hospitality course. Our teacher, Janet, was excellent and working on Zoom (a first for me) was smooth and easy. Our group of learners worked well together with the teacher's help. The pace of learning was good for the group, I learnt a lot - practically and theoretically. I looked forward to joining the meeting each day and have already applied for a job.”
“Trina is an amazing teacher, from Day 1 she has been so professional and knows how to take her time when it comes to teaching us to ensure we understand.
I haven't attended any Zoom classroom lessons, only webinars during COVID-19, however, I feel Zoom classrooms are so much better than face-to-face, thanks to being a part of Strive training. The week has passed by so quickly and because of Trina, I wish we could have longer.
I was always applying for Civil Service roles and not getting far, however, upon beginning this course and especially the Weds session when Leila performed a presentation for us, I applied for roles using the key elements of the course and have been successful and have to complete a situational video interview by Sunday.
I feel so confident in being able to do this and will be going over the behavioral module with a fine toothcomb before completing my Situational test to ensure I have 100 % confidence and understanding and hopefully be successful and i will be letting you guys know the outcome.
Thank you so much STRIVE!!!!
I'm so grateful for the opportunity to be a part of this course.”
“It was a surprisingly enjoyable course. I would recommend it to anyone looking to develop their customer service or communication skills and/or if they want to go into the hospitality or catering industry.”
