We're approaching the end of a redesign of SkillBranch which we've been working on all Christmas. We've focused on making the site easier to use than ever, and February is looking like a hugely exciting month with multiple projects coming online ๐ช
I've been off social media for a while with @SkillBranch over the holidays - spent time refocusing the business and gearing up for an even bigger push in 2019. Good to take a breather and take stock of where we are, now onto the New Year with new possibilities & challenges!
As employers, more needs to be done to promote social mobility and encourage young people to explore different careers without fear of employer bias.
That's what SkillBranch is all about! #socialmobility
Further evidence supporting a platform that removes grades, personal identifiers and subject info from students and lets employers assess on THEIR DEFINITION OF ABILITY ๐
Oh, and we give feedback to students too. ๐๐ป

ISE research and CEO interview @isherwood_ise - more than 80% of graduate recruiters don't really mind what subjects applicants have taken. https://t.co/z3BsLE2uQ9
๐๐ป๐บ๐ป SkillBranch testing is underway!
Students will be tested completely anonymously, receive feedback and selected entries will be invited to a face to face interview! ๐ช

It's been a ridiculously tough month for me personally, where I've really questioned myself. But this really has put the smile back on my face this morning.
Our very first @SkillBranch external project! ๐
#Birmingham#Skills#Graduates#Students#Careers
Noticed arts organisations have started recruiting for "cultural connector" roles, acknowledging the value of individuals already "connected". The problem? These roles are internships or low-paid entry positions, which tells me said organisations have COMPLETELY missed the point.

Employers often don't consider the costs of a low paid internship to students, the fact that 27% of grads are concerned that they're losing out to others who can afford to support themselves is a key issue for social mobility. #Graduates#Careers#SocialMobility
Top graduate schemes dominated by private schools - and there are fantastic students outside the top 20 most targeted unis by employers! #graduatecareers#graduaterecruitment https://t.co/tFaRMCV0bW
Today it's #InternationalDayOfPeace, a day for us all to consider the amazing work done by aid workers to support the 2 billion people who live in countries affected by conflict. Why not read up on what it takes to work in international aid. โฎ๏ธ- https://t.co/LUWU0oXE2Z
Feels familiar? ๐ If only there was a space where you could get that experience and find out which is the industry for you...
Oh yeah. We did that. ๐๐ป
