"I've had great results as an outcome of attending the Job Application & Interview Skills workshop, I have since applied for 2 roles. I am happy that as a result of this course, I have been successful in the recruitment process and have been offered the position. I feel confident in my application as a result of having attended this course. This course and the trainer were great and I feel that if I did not attend this course, I would not have progressed as far as I did in the recruitment process.
