The Rotary Club of High Wycombe is just one of the clubs who are very active in preparing school leavers for the wider world of work. Two electronic tutorial packages "Win that Place" and "Win that Job" were produced by Rtn Louise Rollins using her vocational expertise, and circulated to schools in the area. They were extremely well received and followed up with mock interview sessions in a number of selected schools. Comments received from some of the 170 students who participated included:
The presenters were cool and did not patronise us.
I have a much clearer idea of how to prepare for an interview.
The handout was helpful.
It was a really interesting day with no weak links!
We should get more business people into school.
I get nervous in interviews but I think I'll be better in my next one.
They were really nice.
Our one seemed really interested in us ...caring bloke!
