A huge shout out to Career Services for helping me achieve my dream job as an apprentice aircraft mechanic. The apprenticeship preparation course was a huge asset to me and allowed me to approach the aptitude tests and interviews with huge confidence allowing me to do well in them. This therefore unlocked a new stage of my life as an aircraft mechanic. My tutor for the day brilliantly broke down what the aptitude tests required, and the booklet allowed me to adequately prepare in advance for the interview. Once again thanks for the great help.

I attended the Apprenticeship Preparation course and found the course and handout notes to be a huge help to me sitting the aptitude tests. When it came to the interview I referred back to the notes which obviously did the trick as I was successful and started my Electrical Apprenticeship with the ESB in September. I absolutely love it and am so grateful to Career Services for their help and guidance.
