Congratulations to Rafi Rahman, who’s been offered a Level 3 sponsorship in Client Resolutions at Fidelity (financial services).
As part of the recruitment process Rafi, who was previously at Carrington School had to attend a day-long assessment centre alongside other hopefuls on 28 April, at Fidelity’s Head Office in Tadworth.
He said, “The assessment stage was pretty tough, with an interview and case study, but I got through it! I’ve been working at Screwfix since August last year, and that experience helped me for sure, especially in my interview stage! I’d encourage all young people to gain work experience, as you never know how it might help you in the future!”
He added, “Earning while I’m learning, not having a huge student debt and being able to commute from home, made me appreciate how exceptionally lucky I am to be given this brilliant opportunity.”
“I’d like to thank Carolyn Langford and Ellen Seddon from the College Careers team who were great at preparing me for interviews and what to expect at the assessment centre. Former student Finlay Truelove, who’s also an apprentice at Fidelity was also extremely supportive.”
