  • Update your resume.
  • If you have gone to a place highlighted in this blog, why not leave a comment at the relevant post. (For example if you went to the GV Hospital, find the GV Hospital post, leave a comment).
  • Send a thankyouletter.
    • Why? Apart from being polite, it’s also about creating opportunities for the future ‘you’,
      • you may need your work experience employer as a referee, or
      • you could score yourself a job!
      • you could score yourself a school based apprenticeship!
