Vesi says:

"I saw while looking for graduate jobs that there were people who were employed at a high rate into good jobs that went through the Learning People's training programme. I read some of the reviews on the Prosple website and everyone had good things to say about it.  

My Career Services Consultant was probably one of the best parts of my time with Learning People. Mikayla helped to get me the job I have today by helping me step by step to connect with others on LinkedIn. I consider myself quite a shy person and therefore connecting with random people on LinkedIn felt beyond me. However, Mikayla reassured me that a lot of people connect with others when they're trying to find work. I ended up connecting with a data scientist who works under a consultancy on LinkedIn and she sent me job applications to Health NZ which is where I applied and work at now. Mikayla also helped with my CV and pushed me to keep connecting with others to build my LinkedIn page as most people look at that when hiring as well. 

I would like to thank everyone who helped me get to where I am today.”
