Virtual Career WorkOut

A career journey is influenced by the working people who a young person comes into contact with. Together we can inspire and vitally broaden young people’s career outlook through encounters diverse professional experiences.  We do this through Virtual Career WorkOut sessions.

How it Works

During these dynamic 1 hour sessions, students learn about careers market information and employability skills.  We then invite you along with 3-4 other business volunteers from our diverse pool of 3000+ professionals to join us live for up to 40 minutes.  Students will then have the opportunity to ask you questions in order to learn about your career experiences and journey.  Our facilitator will manage and guide discussion, whilst encouraging the students.
