“I found the course very well-structured and informative.
Abi did an amazing job on delivering the course, I was so pleased we had such a great trainer. it made all the difference.”
“Steve is a very good trainer. This course would be invaluable for people who are not experienced in job applications or/and interviews. The only criticism is that I really hoped for a more focused Civil Service recruitment process. I hoped to practise lots of Reasoning Tests and Situational Judgment tests and to practice statements based on the Civil Service Competency based profiles - Communicating and Influencing, Delivering at Pace, etc. These were hardly touched. We practised a general approach to the work search and interviews, which was very good but not Civil Service focused.”
“Extremely beneficial course. I gained key information to move forward with. Abi was amazing and made the whole experience a very pleasant one. I would definitely recommend it.”
“Excellent Training with modern online tools that kept you always informed on your progress and the trainer did all his best to assist in the successful completion. Very professional and friendly.”
“I came to the course with the intention of trying to understand how to create a *strong* civil service application to stand out from other applications. Sadly, the course was a lot of copy and paste. Understand it's a mixed crowd but some workshopping time to actually run through personal statements, behavioural submissions and CV feedback for the role selected was missing. A smaller group would aid this.”
“Abi was amazing. She guided us through everything clearly and with care. I feel this course has really helped me.
Thanks Abi, you have genuinely made a difference!”
“Excellent help with all matters regarding applying for a job. This course helped me develop a tailored CV and how to create a professional cover letter. In addition to that I now know the different methods of interviews and how to properly prepare myself for whichever one I need to attend to.”
“The training itself was exceptional: A higher level of job searching and applications, mixed with Assessment criteria I'd never seen before.
Unfortunately, the online group scenario I found distracting, while balancing different windows, typing input and simultaneously following instructions as I'm less able than most with IT skills.”
