Work Experience
If you want to develop your work skills, increase your self-confidence or find out what you might be good at, you might want to consider Work Experience.
What's involved
We can put you in touch with someone who’s keen to give you a go. When the work experience finishes, you’ll get a reference from your employer to add to your CV.
Work Experience can be for up to four weeks, and no more than 40 hours a week.
Work Experience will help you:
- understand how a workplace or business works
- find out what an employer expects of you
- experience the type of work you might be good at
- learn skills you can use elsewhere.
We support you all the way through, especially when you get closer to finding another job.
