“My tutor, Steve, was extremely supportive, and I appreciated the feedback he gave regarding my CV, cover letter, and my answer to an interview question.
However, I felt that there should have been more time allocated to the tasks.”
“Strive training offers a wide range of skills needed for work. It's all in one course/ a journey to prepare candidates for a career they have in mind.
It's teaches how to search, apply and safety at work place which is risk assessment that many don't know what it is especially those who never been in employment.
The course prapare candidates for interview how to prapare and answer questions and practice mock interview.
Overall, I gained new skills on how to tailor CV and Cover letter in the imployability plus portal and full explanation on how to use and fill the Civil Service jobsite, who they are, their culture, values and what they stand for and the requirements for candidates to work in government/Civil Service.”

“I recently completed Strive Trainingβs Civil Service employability course. Much of the content covered ground I was already familiar with, but I still picked up a few useful tips - especially around competency answers. The trainer was clear and created a positive learning environment. Overall, a good course, particularly helpful for those newer to Civil Service applications.”

“Strive Training's Civil Service course provided a lot of information that is useful to take for future job searching and job applications in the Civil Service.”
“Overall, it's a very good course. In addition to the wealth of information, resources, and reinforcement, the main strengths of this course are [1] its focus on continuous real-life hands-on application of the concepts taught, and [2] its comprehensiveness, taking the student through the entire job-finding process from beginning to end. Also, copies of all information are emailed to participants, and one gets a non-terminating online portfolio of the course-exercises.”

“Useful course as a highlghter for Civil Service opportunities, covering process and application scenarios. A good mix of practical content with interactive sessions and on-line elements. The Employability portal is very useful for composing CV's & Cover letters and is available after the course as well which is great feature! For Employability- on the job search section it would be good to add an industry or specialty filter to allow more accurate job searching?”
