CV and Assessment Centres

Our workshop prepares students for the many stages of the recruitment process to help them understand how to stand out from the crowd. The workshop is split into two main areas – CV Skills workshop to help students develop their CV writing skills and a mock assessment centre which is based on a real-life mock assessment centre. This workshop prepares students for the many stages of the recruitment process for future jobs and Higher Education applications.
