Graduates that lack Finesse

We spend about 25,000 on our little Darlings education! And now they are struggling to get a job. The Graduate grooming Company think its worth spending another few hundred quid to give them a 70% more chance of getting a Job. In the current climate the believe their proposition is more important than ever before.

It is a sad fact that some of our brightest Graduates are heading for the ranks of the unemployed, or at best, jobs which are not suited to either their natural talents or their qualifications. Whilst this has a lot to do with the current financial climate it has more to do with the lack of preparation we give our students at their colleges and universities.

The Graduate Grooming Company boasts that they can improve a Graduate's chances of wining a job at interview by as much as 70%. Their approach is to put candidates through a series of simulations, specific to the requirements of the employer. They include one-to-one interviews, presentations, panel questioning in fact whatever it takes to make sure they are the outstanding candidate on the day. As well as this they are given some straight from the hip advice on how they must dress and 'tough love' guidance on the etiquette and how they will need to come over if they are going to impress an employer, who, is now more than ever, realising that it is a buyers market!

Sarah Pettigrew, Managing Director of GGC, said Our institutes of learning have long considered that their job is to educate and of course they are right, however we see some of our best young talent, struggling to get a job they could excel in, being turned down at interview because they have had no real experience in what they will need to demonstrate, she went on to say, When we train our Graduates we use interviewers who are every bit as tough as they are going to encounter in the real world, if not tougher! Over a three day period we see naive young people grow into confident, presentable and valuable assets. Sometimes even their parents don't recognise them!
