Jake has developed a wide range of employment skills during his rotation with the portering team. One of his tasks was accompanying Adrian to collect samples from local Health Centres. This experience helped him discover the type of job he would like to pursue in the future

Networking at its finest! Olivia took the initiative to invite a business of her choice to the Reverse Job Fair and it paid off! Not only did Group Training & Development Chef Dan English Lakes Hotels accept the invitation, but he also surprised her with a delicious chocolate dessert!
