Want to convert your Vacation Scheme into a Training Contract? Join one of our unique interactive workshops tailored to help AS members convert their vacation scheme(s) into a training contract. The programme is written and hosted by AS’ expert coaching team, consisting of former graduate recruitment managers, professional coaches and solicitors who will tell you how they made a positive impression, both personally and professionally, on their successful vacation schemes.
These workshops also incorporate insights from the many AS members who have participated in Headstart sessions and have gone on to convert their vacation scheme into a training contract. The advice shared covers both pre-scheme preparation as well as how to excel on the vacation scheme itself.
When will the Summer Head Start session run?
- Monday 18 May 12pm – 2pm; and
- Tuesday 2 June 12pm – 2pm.
