On the 12th and 13th October we held mock interviews for our Year 11 students. Over the two days our students spent time creating their C.V before planning and preparing for an interview with a skilled interviewer. Our students were professional, smart and well-prepared and were a complete credit both to themselves and the Academy.
We were fortunate to once again have support from a wide range of local employers, and would like to thank the following for their invaluable contribution in making this a successful event:
- Nottinghamshire Fire and Rescue
- Sytner
- NHS
- Nottingham Trent University
- HMBH Nature’s Love
- Sogefi Suspensions
- Nottingham City Council
- The World is Urz CIC
- Derbyshire Healthcare Foundation Trust
- Davidsons Homes
- Savills
- Langridge Homes
- Experian
- Vision West Nottinghamshire college
- Cafcass
Feedback from the interviewers was very positive with some saying:
‘Blown away, interviewed better than adults I’ve interviewed’
‘I’ve never been so impressed’
‘I would employ them in a heartbeat’
‘He could take over the world’
‘ I have been blown away and would give any of them a job’
‘ The students are a credit to you’
We are extremely proud of the effort and maturity that our students displayed over the two days.
