Work Experience Pupil Review

Talking with different people from different sectors in the business, taking part in different workshops and sessions to learn about and experience some job roles. Talking to current apprentices and shadowing them.

Research, time management and presentation skills, communication, and independence. We did a CV workshop which helped us build our LinkedIn profiles and our CVs.

I enjoyed meeting lots of new people and having new experiences in the business culture, something that I probably wouldn't have experienced firsthand until I started working.

There was a timetable for all the workshops and talks for each day, we were given this ahead of time, so we had time to plan and knew what we were expecting.

We did a presentation each, on the company values, this helped us to learn about and experience the culture. By talking to so many people, we were also able to see clearly the culture and get a good feeling of how it would be to work there.

Helped me to think about some more opportunities that are available for me such as apprenticeships. It made me want to work in a place like it in the future.

We were almost always meeting new people, at one point we even met the CEO.

Yes

I loved my experience there, I think it was very enriching and enjoyable.

Have an open mind, be up for trying new things, and make the most of the experience.
