I found that the sessions being interactive was very useful, as it allowed questions to be answered as we went making it relatable to everyone despite having different career paths. It really helped with understanding about becoming the 1% to stand out when applying for jobs, and how to prepare properly for interviews. Thanks

Mike was a huge help and resource for me throughout the turbulent process of securing a graduate job post my Masters’ degree. Beginning with providing advice on my CV content and structure and helping with finding job opportunities and then progressing on to helping research specific companies I applied for and aiding with interview practice by thinking of possible questions, Mike helped me to feel prepared and ready to face the entire application process. Crucially, his supportive and personalised approach meant that I always felt able to talk to Mike about any issues I was having with applications, and this helped to give me the confidence to succeed and secure my graduate role and I wish to thank Mike again for his invaluable support.

The most useful aspect of the workshop came through the support given regarding assessments and interview tips. The information regarding questions that I could potentially ask employers at the end or during the interview was extremely helpful and definitely something I would look to incorporate if given an interview somewhere. Furthermore, I also found studies and research that you included very interesting, e.g. the use of standing up while on a telephone interview to increase energy levels. Very insightful, with key information and tips which will no doubt improve my employability chances. Thanks,

I have already said to my Mum and Dad that I felt privileged to be involved in this pilot workshop. Even just to be in a call with people all in the same position and to hear you and Helen give advice was really reassuring and useful. Thanks,
