“Helpful course. Was worried at the start of the course that it was too basic/slow paced for me since I’m already comfortable using tech/internet to search/filter etc. After this first day, it started to help me far more and I felt very supported which has helped my confidence. The practical mock interviews are particularly helpful.”
“Excellent trainers with a friendly approach, Wendy treats learners with respect and takes attention individually. The online class was very helpful and the presentation really great. I will recommend it.”
“Apart from the issues over ID, I've thoroughly enjoyed it, even if it is hard work. And hope will all be useful.
Is this enough, we're still Striving on Zoom?”
“The Strive training course has been really enjoyable, meeting and working with people from a variety of backgrounds. And also the Tutor is very helpful!”
“The customer service I received from everybody at Strive during my time on the course has been amazing.
This has been a journey of self-growth for me and I feel like I have gained the confidence I needed to get back into the workplace.
Trina (our teacher) was fantastic, filled with positive energy and informative knowledge - making you want to listen and learn. She created a great, friendly, open learning environment for our group - bringing the best out of us all, by keeping everybody involved in all the discussions (asking for views/opinions) and assigning group work.”
“I found the strive training course very helpful and informative. I was glad that I did it.
The tutor gave good advice, I was impressed that I could have a one to one with the tutor if I was unsure of anything. I would recommend it as job searching can be overwhelming at times.”
“The course tutor, Wendy Hill, was very friendly, patient and understood the realities of life, as I being a mother to 2 primary school kids and a baby, had to juggle childcare responsibilities and this full time course. Wendy was very understanding in all the challenging situations her students found themselves in. So I say thank you very much Wendy and the whole Strive Training board for giving me and my other course mates a chance.”
“Strive Training gave me the knowledge and confidence to write a competent cover letter. Since the course, I have succeeded in getting job interviews in great part because of the cover letters which I wrote with ease. Before the course, I would have found this part of the job application very taxing and frustrating.
Also, learning the STAR technique has proven to be crucial, I have used it in two interviews already.”
“I had some personal issues at the start, and one of the tutors was not that sympathetic. Noelle, who was my other tutor, was brilliant and encouraged me all the way. Without her, I may have not finished the course and taken the other advice, which was to cancel the course and start again at a later date. I have not received my certificate yet, so not sure what the questions below are?”
