Daniella Smith, Executive Assistant, Eight Roads Europe Ventures

Thank you so much for the chance to help with Spear Mock Interviews today. It was a superbly organised process and from the feedback, it really makes a difference to the trainees’ chances in securing a job. Our interviewee Curtis is a dedicated, honest and adaptable person… [and] we could tell he has listened to feedback and is working on self-improvement at every opportunity.

Ruth Winkworth, Head of Export, Jude’s

Spear graduates have brought a huge amount to our business – 10% of our workforce are now Spear graduates. They’re quick learners, they’re keen and they inspire the rest of our staff by their enthusiasm. I’d really encourage any business to consider hiring Spear graduates.

John Spiers, Chair of EQ Investors and CEO of the EQ Foundation

Spear's goal for its young people is not only to get them into work, but also to ensure that they sustain and progress in employment to become financially independent adults. It is one of the very few programmes in the country that has an innovative approach to coach young people for one full year to secure a job and help them progress their career.

Chiku Bernardi, Investment Director, Impetus

We're very glad to have had the opportunity to have Daniel intern with us and will look forward to continued partnership with Spear.

Corinne Marchand, Head of People Operations, MAPP
