Split The Best From The Rest

Practical advice on getting your first job…


Yes we do live in a world full of evaluation and judgement and in my own profession there is a term used in recruitment that simply says “Split The Best From The Rest”.


What does it mean? It means exactly what may think it means i.e. FINDING THE BEST. So in a recruitment situation, finding your BEST person for the job, or best candidate which is the inhouse term often used for job applicants, Recruiters can say candidate instead of applicant so that’s a good one to be aware of in terms of the lingo that’s used. This can be tough particularly when we are trying to find our first “real” job that isn’t babysitting for a family member or walking the dog AGAIN this week…


What can we do? My youngest brother used to say “it is what it is” so despite the fact that we may find it hard to believe that we are being judged, the reality is that we are and based on all of this how can we make this tragic fact work for us instead of against us?


To stand out, to be categorised into the “best” category when applying for work there is so much you can do. Today this video will give you one very practical example of what you can do right now to stand out. This online food safety training that we offer in our team will be a brilliant addition to your CV, particularly for those struggling to find their first-time job.
