CV Writing & Interview Preparation Workshops

Workshop Objectives:

• Proficiency in pre-employment and interpersonal skills
• Reduced structural barriers into employment and into skills provision
• These barriers can take a variety of forms and will interact with other characteristics of labour market disadvantage such as gender, age, health, disability and ethnicity to reduce their likelihood of labour market and skills engagement. While not exhaustive, types of commonly experienced barriers might include homelessness, being an ex-offender, being a care leaver or having substance dependency issues. Other types of barriers might relate to access to services such as care services including childcare, transport, digital and financial. Barriers may also relate to lack of interpersonal and employability skills such as confidence, motivation and behavioural issues.
• People engaged in job-searching following support.
• Increased employability through development of interpersonal skills funded by UKSPF.
• People familiarised with employers’ expectations, including, standards of behaviour in the workplace.
