Project managers and management personnel nationwide have heard the clarion call from Arras People and the JobCentre Plus – if you’re out of work and come from those particular backgrounds, then the free JobSearch Support Service for Newly Unemployed Professionals could be for you.
Unemployed management professionals can turn to Arras People and their local JobCentre Plus for JobSearch Support Services that will surely benefit their career.
JobCentre Plus branches nationwide – from Barnstaple to Port Glasgow and several points in between – have suggested and recommended out-of-work managerial professionals to us because of our ability to cut through the clutter of your job search efforts and hammer down the essential bits that get you hired. Things like your CV, job interview performance, filling out job applications, the finer details of a good cover letter, personal stocktaking and determinance of your goals and desires, analysis of the job market, even employer selection techniques.
Is it appreciated? Well, consider the depth of regard JC+ branches have shown in the repeat business – several branches have sent more than 1 candidate our way since we were awarded with this service providance contract in April. Clearly, we’re doing something very right and providing quality assistance to our public sector partner.
Some questions do develop about this service and how we provide it. How can Arras People be available to clients from so many places, for instance? Good question: It’s because Arras People delivers these services to clients via intensive telephone consultations that accomplish so much in just one day. But what exactly do the candidates think of our service? Well, the proof lies in the delicious pudding of compliments:
“Nicola (Thorp)’s help has been extremely useful and professional. I was most pleasantly surprised that this kind and level of help was available through the government’s scheme. It has made a huge difference to my prospects and my confidence, after many years of rustiness! Thank you, Nicola. I will always recommend Arras People’s service to fellow project managers.”
“I have benefitted in the following ways from my discussions with Mick: Structure and length of CV and interpreting the requirements in a role description.”
“I would recommend it to anyone and have asked (the JobCentre Plus) to flag it with any out-of-work project managers / co-ordinators etc. I thought it was a great service.”
“I also received this type of support from the careers service at the university where I did my MBA – Arras People was much more knowledgeable and helpful – and were able to offer some very useful, constructive criticism to help me to improve my job searching. Thanks.”
“The CV feedback combined with other things I was doing enabled reformating the information, so people are now calling me about jobs.”
“I was given advice on how to present my CV. Gary was polite, informative and attentive.”
