“I was previously a skeptic as to why a course about applying for jobs needing to last a week, however the Strive Employability course was great in that it covered so much content and provided invaluable information especially for applying Civil Service jobs, though for the private sector too. You also get access to a fantastic CV builder and job search portal, as well as ongoing support after the course.”
We love your review, thank you! 😁 Many people have similar feelings when they start, but then - like yourself - they realise there is more to applying for jobs than a simple application form. We hope the skills, support and tools you now have at your disposal help you in the next stages of your career! 🙌
“At the start of the course I was somewhat skeptical and did not feel that I would actually learn anything but that it would be more of a revision course for me. How wrong I was!
The course started from the beginning of the job process: creating a CV, to applying for the role, writing cover letters and much more. I particularly enjoyed learning about the STAR concept which will make my life so much easier when telling my 'career story'
Overall I would recommend this course to anyone who is feeling dismayed with the whole job hunting journey. It will open your eyes to the process and structure of employment life and will really give you back your confidence to just keep striving forward!
Job well done peoples'
Thank you all for your wonderful help and concern.”

“I found the course very interesting and feel I learnt quite a bit, the trainer.tina larking_cook was very very.helpful and would recommend any body to your course.”
“Overall the course was good, the only aspect of the course I wasn't impressed with was the amount of independent work that would focus more on the work and ability to study as an indvidual. Anyone moving on to further education would struggle without building up those skills which is why I gave it 4/5 stars.”
That's a good review, thank you for being so honest James! 😊 It sounds like you took good value from the course, and we hope it helps you in the next stages of your job search! 🚀🤞
