Help and advice to get the right job.  

Connexions Personal Advisers
Are there to support you so you stand the best opportunity in gaining employment.

Getting a job
To get a job you will need to prepare yourself but there's help for you including our publication 'Getting a job' which will guide you through each stage from searching for job vacancies to applications and interviews.

Starting your own business
It is never too early to find out more about starting your own business and there are a number of organisations and websites who can help.

Work experience
Work experience can play a key role in helping you develop an understanding of the world of work.  

Work with training
If you would prefer not to study full-time but to earn and learn then think about work-based learning which gives you the chance to gain a qualification while working.

Gap year
Do you think you would benefit from doing something different before your further education course? Do you want to spend some time volunteering or helping others? Then a gap year could be right for you.
