The past 15 months have been challenging for us all but particularly difficult for those leaving school and about to head off into the world of further study, work and training. Being interview ready is something we all work on continuously throughout life! Sigma Capital is very pleased to support The Salford Foundation and their efforts to support young people at this time has been commendable. Activities and events to help guide and support many age groups through transition from primary to senior school, and preparation for life after school, have been inventive and fun, whilst also informative and life-skill building. We were delighted to be able to help with recent virtual Mock Interviews at All Hallows RC High School. It was a real pleasure meeting the young people and discussing their ambitions and desires going forward, and also helping guide and advise on possible pathways and ideas. Interviews are daunting enough face-to-face but on Zoom in a room with headphones takes the nerves, and skills needed to communicate confidently and clearly, to another level. The young people our team volunteers met were enthusiastic and engaging, and all did extremely well under these unusual circumstances. We are looking forward to being involved in the forthcoming Transition Day Yr 5 Survival Island on 25 June, and events in the future.
