    💙 Empowering people from underserved communities is at the core of what we do, so we were delighted to help our friends over at Zero Gravity by delivering an engaging interview workshop for their members. 📝 Zero Gravity does some incredible work with high achieving students from low opportunity backgrounds. It was a pleasure to support them through the next stage of their journey with some core interview and assessment centre practice. 🚀 Put your interview skills to the test and check out our open roles today! #community #socialimpact #careers

    What even is an assessment centre? And what do you actually do there? 🫥 Thank goodness for our friends over at Beam who are there to help. On June 22nd, a group of our members trooped down to Beam’s London office. The Beam team ran a hands-on session for our members to get in some interview and assessment centre practice - an essential for smashing any career prep our members are carrying out. The workshop was run by Ziyad, who actually works in Recruitment himself - so he knows EXACTLY what interviewers are looking for. Time in the hot seat, a therapeutic moan about the perils of the grad job market (which we can now help with 👀), and a lovely lunch. Cheers Beam Team - whatta day! Fancy coming to our next in-person event? Hit up the link below. https://lnkd.in/eW55VRpk #recruitment #assessmentcentre #interviewprep

    It’s Mental Health Awareness week and this year’s theme is Movement - so here’s what the Beam Team have been up to 👇 ☀️ We’ve been enjoying the sunshine and taking ‘walking meetings’ outside. ⚽️ From hiking to football to salsa, we’ve been sharing our favourite ways to get moving. 🧘We had an insightful session with Movement is Medicine UK, all about the neuroscience behind movement and stress relief. It’s important to find time to take care of ourselves and prioritise our mental health, and we’ve loved hearing about all the ways the Beam Team keeps active 💪 What’s your favourite way to get moving? 💭 #mentalhealthawareness #mentalhealth #wellbeing
