About

Employment

Services

Youth in Romsey offers an employment service where young people can search and apply for part or full time jobs with a member of staff to help them along the way. 

 

We help with job applications, covering letters and preparing CV's and are also available to conduct mock interviews for those who need help preparing for a telephone, online or face to face interview. 

 

This service is available Monday to Friday during all of our opening times.

Young people can also drop in to the centre, or can arrange a one-to-one session with a youth worker to discuss their career options.

​

Volunteering

We often have local volunteering opportunities to help you get experience of being in a working environment.

 

Unfortunately, we currently don’t have any volunteering opportunities available in the local area, however if you would like to be considered for any future opportunities please send us a copy of your cv and a covering email letting us know the type of experience you would like to gain.

Apprenticeships

Apprenticeships combine practical training in a job with study.

​

As an apprentice you’ll:

  • work alongside experienced staff

  • gain job-specific skills

  • earn a wage and get holiday pay

  • get time for study related to your role (usually one day a week)

​

Apprenticeships take 1 to 5 years to complete depending on their level.

​

Levels of Apprenticeship:

Apprenticeships have equivalent educational levels.

​

Intermediate: 2 GCSE

Advanced: 3 A level

Higher: 4,5,6 and 7 Foundation degree and above

Degree: 6 and 7 Bachelor’s or Master’s degree

​

Some apprenticeships may also give you an additional qualification, such as a diploma.

You can apply for an apprenticeship while you’re still at school. To start one, you’ll need to be:

  • 16 or over by the end of the summer holidays

  • living in England
