“I found the course very useful. Even though I thought I knew it all, I learnt a lot of new things in terms of how to prepare my CV and how to present myself in an interview.”
“Overall well presented course, with excellent training materials.
A wide number of useful techniques to improve CVs and cover letters, preparation for interviews, and answering interview questions.
I feel my ability to successfully obtain a job, particularly in the Civil Service/public sector has been enhanced by taking this course.”
“I loved the course. The trainer was very personable, nice, attentive, tech-aware and literate - there were no silly jokes about "I am so bad at this" to make everyone feel better. We all were expected a minimum and were given a maximum. I enjoyed the exercises. Nothing was new, after all what works is what always worked, hard work, but it was good to be reminded and it did not feel hard at all. The format was quite intensive and it did work.”
“Highly recommend anyone interested in developing their employability skills. Strive Training's learning style made it exceptionally easy to understand and by the end of the course I could use various recommended tools and resources to help bolster my CV, cover letters and how to answer behaviour & strength questions for civil service jobs.”
“It was informative and knowledgeable training. I have learned lots of knowledge from this training. My tutor helped me in every difficult step and guided me about my mistakes. I am really satisfied with this training.”
“Trina in an incredible teacher. The course is greate and very helpful. Sincerely recommend. The course helped me feel confident in preparing for the interview. Created a clean and professional CV - that will help in the future for sure. đź‘Ť”
“I found this course very useful to help me learn more about applying for jobs, particularly within the Civil Service. Trina was amazing and ensured the group understood everything we were learning so that we could all benefit from the course. I've learnt how to apply what's put in the job advert into my application and match it with my pre-existing skills in order to have the best possible chance of obtaining a job.”
“On the first day of the training, Trina asked us to put down two goals we hope to achieve at the end of the training. Today is the last day and I can confidently say that I have achieved both goals.
I started the training programme not knowing how to write a concise and tailored CV, but I do now. I can also confidently apply for a job in the Civil Service now that I am aware of the Success profile and the Star method. I have a better understanding of how to read, understand and decipher a job advert. The skills I have gained during this week are transferrable to other job application processes, not just in the Civil Service.
I have been in employment for over 30 years but took time out to gain some professional qualifications and pursue other interests, this training programme has improved my job search prospect.
Thank you”
“The course was set out with helpful tips and information to go on with finding your next job, Steve our trainer was very good, clear concise with the course work he gave and was always helpful when asking questions.”
