Evidence your skills – be on an equal footing with others applying for the job, if they have experience and training and you don’t, you’ll never get the job!

Show your determination – prove you have a good attitude towards hard work! Many employers will be reluctant to hire people who are unemployed, especially if you’ve been out of work for a while as they might view it unfavourably. So show you are prepared for work and haven’t been wasting your time.

Cost effective choice – your new employer won’t have to pay for your training so will be more likely to consider your application in a better light than someone they will have to spend money on. It’s their responsibility to ensure you’re trained, but they run a business and will want to save money wherever they can.

Be an asset to a new company – if you have the skills to fit straight into your new role, without having to be trained up, you’re much more likely to become an asset to your new company, quickly.

Forklift training is the perfect stepping stone into employment, especially with the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) clamping down on businesses that don’t provide adequate training for employees. So look ahead to where you want to be and take responsibility for your own learning and development.

If you’re serious about finding work in the construction or warehousing sectors, look into the possibility of free training. There are many government funded places available to help get the high numbers of unemployed people back into work.
