“Hi, I’m Marina.” “Hi, I’m Maria.” What happens when you give two talent acquisitions a camera? ✨MAGIC✨ Maria Avila Otero and I had the honor to help serve University College at University of Denver with their career fair. We met so many fun candidates. Working with a school can offer several perks, including: 1. Job Stability: School positions often provide stable employment, especially for teachers and support staff, with regular hours and holidays. 2. Benefits: Schools typically offer benefits such as health insurance, retirement plans, and professional development opportunities. 3. Summers Off: Teachers and some staff enjoy extended summer breaks, providing time for rest and personal pursuits. 4. Impact on Education: Contributing to the education of students can be rewarding and fulfilling, knowing you're making a positive impact on their lives. 5. School Community: You become part of a close-knit community of educators, students, and parents, fostering a sense of belonging. 6. Work-Life Balance: Many school roles offer reasonable work hours, allowing for a good work-life balance. 7. Career Progression: Opportunities for advancement and career growth are often available in the education sector. 8. Access to Resources: Schools provide access to educational materials, libraries, and technology that can benefit both employees and their families. 9. Summers for Family: If you have school-age children, working in a school can align with their academic calendar, making it easier to spend time with them during breaks. 10. Fulfilling Mission: If you are passionate about education and helping young minds develop, working in a school can align with your values and goals. Thank you Denver Public Schools for creating an environment where we feel welcomed.

#NationalCareersWeek I actually wrote this last year ... still just as relevant today as it was then so reposting again this National Careers Week ... For many, including myself, a careers journey is not a straight line, but rather one taking many twists and turns. My meandering journey has seen me in many job roles, giving me an enormous amount of experience and a plethora of transferable skills. Think about all your experiences, from working, volunteering, in your personal life, and think about all the valuable transferable skills you have gained. #careers #careerjourney #lifeskills #skills #transferableskills #experience Blackpool and The Fylde College

National Careers Week is here! And we are kicking it off with an almighty bang! We are delighted to share how we are creating real life opportunities that are not only engaging, but also crucial in showing young people what they can achieve. Here’s a small glimpse into how we are kickstarting careers this week. Stay tuned as we share more stories in the coming days from our various teams! We are currently putting the final preparations on a huge Careers Fair for Cranford Community College, 210 Year 9 students who will have the opportunity to interact with 41 professionals from: Brighton and Sussex Medical School, Brunel University London, Royal Holloway, University of London, University of Winchester, West London College, Wates Group, VolkerFitzpatrick Ltd, Transport for London, GSK, West London NHS Trust, British Army, British Airways, Royal Air Force (RAF), COWI, Berkeley Group Plc, Kier Group, Haleon, Met Police Uk, Delta Capita, National Physical Laboratory (NPL), Accenture, Hounslow Arts Centre and University of West London The day will also include a panel discussion and focus on pathways into employment.

These visits are with leading companies such as GSK, Novotel Hotels, Holiday Inn, Berkeley Group Plc, Framestore, and the Hill Group UK to offer an in-depth look at the world of work, directly at source to demystify the workplace and help them feel like they belong. This initiative wouldn't be possible without the collaboration and support of the participating organisations. So a big thank you to you! Hope everyone has a great time and what a great networking opportunity it is too. Together, we're not just preparing young people for the future; we're helping them shape it by kickstarting careers. #ncw2024 #nationalcareersweek #CareerReady #Volunteer #YoungPeople #Education #Community #Engagement #Opportunity
