Rey employability focused international work experience 2017-2019

“I was treated as a regular employee and cooperated closely with the CEO. Their goal for this year was to expand into an international market. I definitely developed self-management, confidence, my communication skills and many others. My employer decided to keep me employed after my work experience finished.”  

“Working internationally has helped me a lot. The skills I learned during my placement will help me with my future as I now have experience of how to interact with different types of people, even when we don’t speak the same language. This will be useful if I go on to become a paramedic as you never know the people you are going to meet and if they will be able to speak the same language, so I will have experience in dealing with these situations.”  

“I worked in a really good tapas restaurant that had good standards and was always busy. The cultures and traditions of Spanish food is different and unique. I understood that in a workplace I can’t rely on others, work has to be done no matter what, you have to be independent and try 110% all the time.”
