ASK PEOPLE
Sometimes it’s not what you know, it’s who you know. Does your aunty’s friend run a shop? Would they be willing to take you on as an apprentice? Or perhaps your uncle works at a large engineering company. You never know who you may be connected with until you ask.
take a look
The chances are you’ll know your local area pretty well and know of lots of local businesses. Have a look around and see which ones are busy and may need extra help.
NOTE IT DOWN
Once you’ve completed all of this research, make a list of all of the employers you can approach and their contact details.
