[I’m new to TSR, so I hope this is posted in the right category!]
I’m a Year 10 student who is a bit stuck on what to do for her work experience. If I tell you what I’m taking for GCSEs maybe that will help you inspire me. Ok, I’m doing:
- Triple science
- English language and literature
- Maths
- German
- Geography
- IT/Computer Science
- Art
I was thinking about maybe going to my local Apple or Samsung store for the week, however they’re both in the same shopping centre which would be about 1.5 hours on the bus (and I don’t want to take the train). I really want to do something that involves technology (hence my original idea of the two tech companies) but I think the closest I’d get to that locally would be a repair store or something like Curry’s PC world or even the mobile networks, eg. O2, EE, Vodafone. (Which would seem a bit traitor-ish since my phone is on Tesco, haha.)
Any advice on applying for work experience would also be appreciated. School has given us a self-placement form, but my friends have gone all over the place with applying - some have been into the place, one has emailed the place, and one has even got it sorted through her older sister.
Thanks a lot,
Erin xx
