“I came in not expecting much as I thought it was just another course to look like I was doing something. This was so much more, I have come away with remembering skills I had, and skills I have learned, STAR, which is a favorite of mine now. My confidence has risen from a 3 to a full-blown 10. My tutor Samatha Marshall was able to tailor the session individually and not lose momentum.
I would recommend this course (not necessarily for the Civil Service) for everyone struggling with day-to-day searching for work. This is why I have rated this excellent, I'm looking forward in looking for my job.
Thank you Strive.

“The course helped me with particular things such as tidying up my CV and interview techniques. Wendy (the Tutor) was great. She was very helpful, no question was a silly one and we were treated as adults.
I would highly recommend this course.”
“I found the course very stimulating and very helpful. It has helped me develop my CV into a much more concise and professional tool and has also given me a huge confidence boost to help me find the right role for me going into the future. Wendy Hill is an excellent tutor with a wealth of experience and insight. I found her guidance and advice an invaluable help.”
“Antonia, the course tutor was superb throughout the week, she was professional, kind, patient, thoughtful and fun!
The feedback that she provided will be invaluable to me moving forward as I continue my search for a new career.”
“The course was extremely useful. Following a long career break to care for a loved one, I needed to create a new CV, come up to speed with current job hunting avenues and health and safety awareness along with sharpening my interview skills. All of these were covered in the course. The webinar on working in the civil service was enlightening and included an opportunity to put questions to the speaker which yielded further valuable information. Another benefit of training with Strive is post-course support to job seekers. As I have just completed my course I have yet to make use of this bonus but it sounds promising. Our tutor, Steve Carr was very good. He covered a lot of ground with us with patience and humour.”
“Strive Training provided me with high-quality employability skills training. It was interesting to see how the Tutor subtly maintained professionalism. During the training, I learned a set of attributes, skills, and knowledge effective in today’s changing work circle. Strive training has mastered the act of making every learner participate, what stood out for me was how relevant and effective within five days.
My tutor, Samantha was brilliant, and despite being a bit under the weather, gave the best training.”
“Really informative and well put together course. I’ve learned a lot about Civil Service and what it’s like to work there. Our tutor Carlene was simply amazing!”
