“Strive Training has allowed to gain extensive experience in terms of how to relate to other people as part of working in team, building confidence in answering interview questions, preparing CVs and covering letter. The most amazing things is that there is still support available after completing the course.”
“I had applied for the Civil Service Employability Course and was given the BEST tutor I could have asked for: Abi.
She kept the group together with encouragements, support, and patience, and with professional stories about her career which explains why she's in the perfect position to provide advice.
I have been through cv, cover letter, interview skill courses before in all stages of my education and assumed that meant I learned everything I needed. I was proven wrong by this course. The techniques, structures, in depth analysis into questions and how to answer them relevantly: for example how to get CVs past the ATS tracking system companies use for applicants. Invaluable. I won't forget the skills I have learned in this course, nor the range of people I have met.
Thank you Strive and thank you Abi, because the confidence I have now when I apply to opportunities are thanks to you. 🙏☺”
“It has been such an informative course, such an wonderful course to get knowledge about how to write a CV, having interview skills, how to do the civil service test and so on. What a shame that the training is so short.The trainer was very enthusiastic, very knowledgeable, confident, funny, accurate and so lovely to be with, and really to have as a tutor.”

“Super informative and helpful course, to help you identify strengths & weaknesses, but more importantly, it gives you all the tools you need to search and apply for a wide range of jobs. It also guides you through fine-tuning your CV and preparing for interviews. There are also ample resources provided to support you after the training. This is a fantastic training course to set you up for success as a job-seeker.”
“The course was well organised, enjoyable and provided a lot of new information regarding applying to the Civil Service. The session on Civil Service life by current civil servants was a great bonus.”
