I achieved my degree at 25 but I was struggling to find work. My low confidence affected me, especially when I went for interviews.
I saw a leaflet about The Prince’s Trust so I went online to do more research and read many success stories. I got in touch and applied to join the Get into programme. I gained a place in the programme and sought support in applying for jobs, developing my interview skills and building my confidence.
Within the first week of the programme, I attended a workshop and the biggest reward was that I was successful in obtaining a full-time, permanent work in administration in the NHS.
In the remaining few weeks I had work experience and the experience I gained was so valuable to me. The employability training included mock interviews, First Aid, manual handling, information governance, communications and more.
