    BOOKLET 2 NAME: __________________________ TUTOR GROUP: _____________________ A GUIDE TO EMPLOYMENT AND TRAINING For students with A Level, BTEC National, AVCE or other level 3 Qualifications ASHBY SCHOOL There are a number of places where you can research information including opportunities at present, job vacancies and training options. The tables below will give you some ideas on where to start. You can also look in the bibliography. Sources of Vacancies Employment – Employment Agencies Job Centre Newspapers Internet Leicester Careers Website Direct to companies Friends and Relatives Training - Training Provider Upbeat Matrix Occasionally newspapers Vacancies advertised by local newspapers Ashby Times Friday Burton Mail Wednesday Derby Evening Telegraph Wednesday Derbyshire Times Thursday Leicester Mercury Thursday When you first see an advertisement you will have to decide whether you are interested in the job. Think about the following questions… When sending in a CV or job application form, you must include a covering letter. The purpose of the letter is: To make sure that the CV arrives on the desk of the correct person. Take the trouble to telephone, and find the name of the person who will be dealing with applications or CVs, and address your letter, and envelope, to that person by name. To persuade the person to read your CV. So it must be relevant to the company, interesting, and well produced. To clearly say what job you are interested in. If you are sending in a ‘speculative’ CV hoping that they may have work for you, explain what sort of work you are interested in. Do not say ‘I would be interested in working for Widgets Ltd’, but say ‘I believe my skills equip me to work in the product development department/accounts office/whatever’.

This includes cyber-crime – from online fraud to the use of the internet to groom and abuse the vulnerable, and organised crime which causes high levels of harm to people and their property. Alongside the challenge of increasingly complex demand, the force is facing sustained financial pressure and it has a robust plan to deliver further savings from its annual budget by March 2021 on top of those already delivered since 2010. I introduced the Policing Plan in 2018 to transform how Staffordshire Police tackles these challenges. It focuses on a commitment to neighbourhood policing and improving the force’s investigative capabilities, underpinned by better management of demand, and a transformation in the use of technology. At the heart of this is the Public Service Charter which sets out the force’s commitment to local communities; to be there when needed, to put the public first and to work together with communities and partners as one team to keep people safe.
