“It was quite better than expected. Now that I have finished the course, I feel more confident to build a CV and prepare for an interview for my next job, especially Civil Service jobs. I recommend it if you want to learn how build a targeted CV and prepare for an interview with details.”
“Very inclusive course, with a diverse group. Our course leader was amazing; extremely helpful and encouraging. I gained valuable insight and consider the course will provide a wealth of advantages for my current and future pursuits.”
“Strive Training has been an unforgettable experience, an insightful opportunity and a wonderful avenue to meet new people. The training and information provided by my tutor Wendy Hill was fantastic, high-quality and delivered to a high standard, with warmth and a careful eye on all our work in the classes. Additionally, the course structure sufficiently prepared me to understand the role and tasks of a Business Admininstrator and has primed me to be more confident in approaches such roles in future.”
“Useful course, good tutor and cool people on it. Learned quite a bit about applying for a role with thw Civil Service, and about CVs, cover letters and interviews more generally. Course was helpful and opportunity to speak wth other people in similar cicumstances--some also seeking to apply to the Civil Service--was very useful, was good to have. Was a good experience overall.”
“Excellent portfolio platform for Students to cover all units and to follow Tutor's comments, though on Zoom online training for the 60+ Skills for Success Course I Al.. noticed where participants attend and was very blurry screens from my Google notepad so I experienced everyone responding at once to the Tutor' questions. Need more clarity to understand too much different voices at once during the learning outcome units questions. Thank you enjoy

“I found the course content excellent and extremely helpful. It has hightlighted what I need to do to improve my prospects for getting a better job, from re-designing my CV to passing an interview and understanding job applications better, as well as using ALL my experiences to get a job.
I did not like doing the course online - my internet connection at home was unstable at times and I missed important information and even had difficulties joining an important meeting.
With not meeting my fellow group members in person, I felt a lack of support from them as there was hardly any proper interaction, as everyone was in different places doing their own thing. The tutor should have encouraged more group discussions within the course.
She was too focused on getting through the course and I felt at times, however knowledable, and experienced she was as a tutor, she raced ahead and I felt at times left behind not knowing where we were in the course. Things did improve as the course went along and I was able to keep up.”
“Strive are fantastic! They have been very supportive in helping me in my next path in my career.
I would fully recommend using Strive and utilising the courses on offer as they are very benefically.”
