Name Zoe King
What is your background, what are your career ambitions?
I left school with all B-C’s and went straight to college to do a childcare course. I enjoyed it but realised it’s not something I wanted to do as a career. I enjoyed Business Studies a lot at school so I decided to apply for Level 3 Business Studies and I am now studying year 2. My career goal would be to one day own or be a manager of a business but for now I want to pursue my interest in Business Administration.
Why did you chose to register as a Future Hirer?
I chose to register as a Future Hirer to open up more opportunities for me and to meet new people. Also, it’s free and very beneficial for me as it helps me with my future by providing me with help with my CV and interviews. It’s very worthwhile.
What support have you received through Future Hirers membership?
I have had help and tips regarding my CV and its help make my CV look and sound really good. I’ve also had help and tips with job interviews which has made me feel more confident when attending them. The Hire Convention was very helpful and fun too as I met lots of people and gained lots of information regarding the hire industry. Also, because of being a Future Hirer, I gained a week’s work experience at Hire Association Europe for my college course which has helped gain lots and lots of skills which will help me.
Describe aspects of your involvement with Future Hirers which have been particularly rewarding for you?
I think the most rewarding aspects are the amount of help and support I have received since I joined Future Hirers. It has helped me a lot with planning my career and providing me with a work placement. Also, I have met a lot of wonderful people at the Hire Convention and during my work placement and they have all helped me lots.
What advice would you give to someone thinking about joining Future Hirers?
I would tell them to join straight away as you have nothing to lose. It’s free and I can guarantee that it will help you even just a little bit. It will open up your career opportunities so you’re not just limited to one thing and you will gain lots and lots of support, advice and experience which will help you massively when searching for a job as lots of employers want people with experience so this is a great opportunity.
