Thinking about recruiting an apprentice into your business? Or are you a long-serving provider of apprenticeships looking to up your game?

In March, Covid-19 arrived from out of nowhere, grabbed a hold of the world and gave it one almighty shake. Six months on, while it remains unknown as to how and when we’ll overcome the virus in full, what is extremely clear is its impact on businesses everywhere and a shrunken economy both locally and globally.

Clare will join two guests on Joanita’s show at 10am Thursday 6th August, talking about how to maximise job opportunities in the current marketplace.

Who’s your go-to? Who’s that one person who always can help you see the wood from the trees, providing clarity in an otherwise overwhelming time?

Gosh I love a long weekend, especially one where you actually shut the laptop, leave your phone off and live in the moment. I hope that you have had a good one too!

Two months in and a day trip with the family yesterday and my head is feeling refreshed and ready for work. Today, let’s take a look at our recruitment landscape and the impact of Coronavirus on businesses.

I have literally just laughed out loud watching Rob Beckett and Josh Widdicombe on Lorraine and have since listened to their podcasts on Lockdown’s Parenting Hell - it is so true - yes there are some amazing bits of being in our lockdown bubble, but seriously, I should not give up my day job!

For the first time since lockdown, I woke up today with a renewed energy to start to complete the projects that we have been working on behind the scenes. I don’t know whether it was the sunshine this last weekend or the prospect of a long weekend ahead, but I am feeling excited about the future.
