If you're going to be a winter-leaver or just want to arm yourself with knowledge for the future, then join Jamie from Bell Group to get yourself ready for employment. There's a lot to think about so it can feel very daunting and that's OK! We want to help you with a flying start.

 

Preparation is key when you go for your first job. From what to put in your CV and what to leave out, to tips to help with your first interview; this Virtual Insight Session will cover the topics you need to know about to help you prepare, give you the tools you need to be confident in these situations and give you a heads up on what to expect.

 

Bell is a one of the largest property services contractors in the UK and have Scottish branches in Inverness, Aberdeen, Elgin, Fife, Edinburgh, Glasgow & Dumfries as well as others throughout England and Wales and Northern Ireland. This session is part of the Virtual Scottish Careers Gala, though students from the UK are welcome to this helpful employability skills session. 

Jamie will also talk about some careers available at Bell, as they're recruiting for the new Apprentices in February 2024.

  • What would you consider a "great day" at work?
  • Which of your skills would you like to improve?
  • What's your question for Jamie on employability or apprenticeships?
