SOCIAL MEDIA DOS AND DON’TS
“ I’m learning a lot here and getting more and more confident as my skill level increases. I’d like to progress to get involved in more complex CNC machining. When I complete my Apprenticeship, I’d like to go on to do a HNC or HND.”
REECE PRINCE – ADVANCED APPRENTICESHIP IN ENGINEERING
Social media plays a big part in all our lives now, and at The Skills Company, we even offer a Social Media Apprenticeship which is proving extremely popular with both young people and employers who want to use social media to boost their business. But as you make the transition from education to the world of employment, you need to think about how you use social media, and the effect it can have on your job prospects. While social media can be a lot of fun, and very useful, it can also cause people real problems when potential employers see information about you that you would prefer them not to see! In a recent survey, 93% of hiring managers said that they check out candidates’ social media profiles before recruiting, and over half of employers have said that they have rejected candidates because of their social media activity. We’ve come up with
some tips that will help you avoid some of the most common pitfalls. • Think twice before posting anything that you wouldn’t want a potential employer to see. • Use the privacy and security settings to control who can and can’t see what you post. • Don’t get involved in trashing teachers or bullying. • The profiles you follow and the sort of content that you share can reveal more about you than you think. Whether it’s right or wrong, some employers will make assumptions if they see something offensive or inappropriate. • Avoid posting in haste. If you’re angry or upset, wait until you’re calm before posting. • Use a professional sounding username and email address, rather than using one that includes an embarrassing nickname or your football team! • Business sites like LinkedIn can be a great way of networking and finding out about job opportunities, but don’t post anything in your profile that isn’t true.

TOP 10 CV TIPS: 1. Keep it short - no more than two pages of A4. 2. Choose a clear layout and font. 3. Include a personal statement that shows why you are suitable for the position. 4. Tailor it - make sure you adapt your CV to meet the requirements of the job. 5. Keep it current - update your CV regularly. 6. Don’t leave gaps - explain any gaps in your education
and training in a positive way (eg volunteering). 7. Make the most of your hobbies. Look for any skills or experience which might be relevant to the job. 8. Tell the truth! 9. Give examples – say what skills you have, how you’ve used them, and what the outcome was. 10. Check and check again! Use spell check, and get someone else to check for errors too.

STAYING IN EDUCATION UNTIL 18… WHAT DOES IT MEAN? From summer 2015, young people are now required to continue in education or training until their 18th birthday, as part of the government legislation to Raise the Participation Age. But what does that actually mean for young people? The first important point is that the new legislation does not mean that young people have to stay on at school or in a sixth form until they reach 18. The requirement is that young people will need to continue to study or train in one of several ways: •S tudy full-time in a school, college or with a training provider like us •F ull time work or volunteering combined with part-time education or training • An Apprenticeship
Jayne Worthington, Managing Director of The Skills Company, said: “We do a lot of work in schools and it’s become clear to us that there’s a great deal of confusion around this issue among young people, parents and teachers. Many people think it’s about raising the school leaving age, but it’s really about giving everyone the opportunity to continue to learn in the way that’s most appropriate for them. For more and more people now, the right choice is an Apprenticeship, during which young people can continue to learn, gain valuable qualifications, and earn at the same time.”
