What employment opportunities will I have?

Here are just a couple of retail job advertisements (these are real – all I did was cut and paste them onto this page):

REAL LIFE EXAMPLE #1:

“EXPERIENCED CASUAL RETAIL ASSISTANT

Are you an experienced customer service oriented retail assistant looking for retail tourism based duties? Are you available to work on a casual basis any day, including weekends and public holidays? If so, we would love to hear from you.”

REAL LIFE EXAMPLE #2:

“Our client, a global organisation selling high end/luxury goods, is seeking an experienced Retail Assistant. You will have previous retail experience, ideally selling luxury goods, and you will have the passion and drive to hit your targets and make a sale.”

Notice how they are both asking for experience? Any job worth going for (that is, the ones that offer a good salary and exciting job prospects) will demand applicants with experience…

TESTIMONIALS

“The relaxed training meant I was able to immediately interact with the other students which made learning fun.”

Aside from the knowledge that I have gained from training with Consider This Training, I also gained new friends. The relaxed training meant I was able to immediately interact with the other students which made learning fun. I was new to Australia and didn’t know anyone. When I joined CTT, I met people who I know will be able to call my friends for life. I have already started to recommend CTT to other people interested in bettering themselves in their chosen career.

“I don’t consider it ‘training’ as such because I am always having fun in class.”

Aside from my knowledge and experience that I gained from Consider This Training, I know I will be able to find better jobs in the future. I will recommend CTT to everyone, including everyone who listens to my radio show because I don’t consider it ‘training’ as such because I am always having fun in class.

“My income has increased, and continues to increase, as a result of my training. But it is not only about money, as I have found my own passion in helping people through Consider This Training.”
Training with Consider This Training (CTT) helped me understand what I must know about my daily tasks in my career. Not only that, I found CTT provides good and academically qualified trainers with experience in the field.
So, what do I love about CTT?
- I love CTT’s curriculum and how the course is designed to learn quickly and easily;
- I love how the trainers are ready to answer our questions, even outside classroom hours;
- I love how the trainers made me feel confident about the learning process, especially in allowing me to apply the theory in practical settings in aged care.
I was so inspired by CTT that I decided to become a volunteer in the aged care field.

Even better, my income has increased, and continues to increase as a result of my training. But it is not only about money as I have found my own passion in helping people through CTT.

I would recommend CTT to mothers, retrenched people, widows and widowers who are looking for a way back into the workforce.

Thanks CTT!

“I had some reservations about training with Consider This Training… after all what assurance they could give me that I could get a job after completing the course? Well, what a surprise! During my work placement…I was offered a job!”

I had some reservations about training with Consider This Training because I was new to Australia and I knew nothing about the course, such as how the training would be delivered and after all what assurance they could give me that I could get a job after completing the course. My scepticism was a result of having done short courses in the past which only achieving half-baked skills, or worse still, nothing at all.
But I gave CTT a chance because of a recommendation from a relative.

Well, what a surprise! I have reaped some really good benefits from studying at CTT. During a work placement at an aged care facility that I undertook as part of my training, I was offered a job! I know this is due to the fact that the training equipped me with the skills, knowledge and confidence to do the job well.

I am so proud of myself and I would recommend CTT to my friends, colleagues and anyone I meet because I know by studying with CTT, they’ll be on the right track towards their future.
