Participants of the Foundation’s Realising Potential programme recently had the opportunity to enhance their employability skills, thanks to a CV writing workshop delivered by WSG Energy Services, one of the Foundation’s valued corporate partners and supporters of the programme.
The session provided the group with insightful guidance on how to craft a standout CV. From emphasising the importance of capturing attention within the first few lines through to exploring what should and should not be included in a CV.
The group were then challenged to apply their learning by drafting the opening lines of their personal statements. Offering one-on-one support the team from WSG Energy Services ensured each participant felt supported and received personalised feedback.
The workshop also served as a reunion for the group with Steve Jones, WSG’s European Regional Director, who visited last November. The participants fondly remembered his missed penalty during a football game, sparking some lighthearted banter!
Reflecting on the workshop, Steve shared his admiration for the group’s progress:
“Everyone was eager to engage and interacted much more enthusiastically and vocally than I remember from my first visit. Whatever it is you have done, it has obviously worked outstandingly.”
Steve expressed pride in WSG Energy’s involvement, stating, “Ultimately, when I left Carrow Park yesterday, my overwhelming feeling was that we had just been in a room with an amazing bunch of people who, with your support, have truly realised their own potential. I’m so glad that, as an organisation, we have been allowed to make a small contribution to that success.”
Martha Casey, Relationship Manager at the Foundation, highlighted the value of such partnerships:
“It’s always great when partners get involved beyond monetary support. We’re keen on what I like to call Bigger Picture Partnerships, where partners can help us deliver specific KPIs to enrich programme delivery and directly impact a participant’s experience. In this case, WSG Energy brought in-house expertise to help the Realising Potential group with employability skills.”
The CV writing workshop is just one example of how the Foundation and its partners work together to create lasting, positive change in the community.
