You might be surprised to know that, behind the scenes, there’s a lot of recruitment activity taking place in the world of apprenticeships. This year’s crop of school leavers, as well as those looking to make a career change, are still on the lookout for apprenticeship opportunities. The talent bank at Learning Unlimited has never been healthier. Our prospective apprentices are being assessed and prepared for interviews when lockdown ends and employers start recruiting again.
Some of our more ‘savvy’ employer partners have started working on their long term workforce development plans during these unprecedented times. Rather than waiting for normality to return, they are preparing apprenticeship vacancies with us now. This will put them at the front of the queue and enable them to have the pick of our growing list of apprenticeship candidates when Boris gives businesses the ‘greenlight’.
Our advice to employers during the lockdown has been simple: keep planning, keep preparing and don’t stop! Preparing apprenticeship vacancies isn’t a quick business. Making sure that you get the right person, on the right apprenticeship standard, takes time. If you plan to recruit new apprentices when your business reopens, we can do all of the preparation now. Once you are ready to employ your new apprentice/s all you need to do is let us know. In no time at all, we’ll have a high calibre selection of potential apprentices ready for you to interview.
If you need to talk to anyone about the most effective way to plan for apprenticeship recruitment during lockdown, contact us. Our team are working from home and ready to take your call.
