###What happens?
You’ll be in a group of 10-15 people in a similar situation to you. The group is run by friendly and experienced coaches, and meets on weekday afternoons for between 4 to 6 weeks. Topics covered include interview preparation, cover letter advice, presentation skills, confidence and mindset.
###What’s different about it?
Unlike some other career support, we’re not here to just hand you a CV and send you on your way. We’ll treat you like a grown up, and work together to achieve your specific career goals. Got a criminal record? No qualifications? Struggling with mental health? We’ve helped thousands of young people overcome these challenges – and we’re here to help you too.
###Who can join?
Our coaches would love to hear from you to chat through any questions you have. By filling out our sign-up form, you’re not committing just yet – you’re just agreeing to a coach reaching out for a chat about how we can help you.
