Career development needn't be complicated – nor should it be limited to just one or two approaches. Grab your apron, and let's get started!

Cathedral Appointments recruits for a variety of positions across a huge range of sectors throughout Devon, Cornwall and the UK.  Take a look at our top vacancies this week.

It's been several weeks since the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme ended, and although the general consensus was that we would begin to see an uptick in the numbers of available talent ... this simply hasn’t happened.

On average, a person will spend a third of their life at work, or 3,507 days over their lifetime. And when we’re spending so many precious hours working, it’s crucial that we’re doing so in a way that is, at the very least, manageable but hopefully enjoyable and satisfying too.

Since the start of the pandemic, 86 per cent of recruiters have been conducting virtual interviews and it’s looking likely that this method will be here to stay. With 50 per cent of British workers still working predominantly from home and employers looking to broaden their geographical talent pools with this shift to remote working, it simply makes sense for interviews to remain online.

While many individuals and businesses have become far more attuned to their own, and others’, mental health issues over the past 18 months, it’s clear that the support given simply hasn’t been enough for so many.

After 18 months of yo-yoing in and out of lockdowns, the positives that remote working has brought to the table for many employees are endless. According to a new survey by RADA Business, nearly half of workers would like to continue working remotely post-pandemic, with the younger generation being most in favour of this shift.

Despite having embarked on successful careers, why do women feel they have peaked in comparison to men, and what can you do if you feel this way?

Lockdown has changed the future of big cities. In the wake of COVID-19, almost half of Londoners wish to move house, wanting to escape the ‘Big Smoke’ for good. And it seems like this desire is soon to become a reality, with 43 out of 50 of the largest UK companies – most of them based in the capital and other large cities – citing that they do not plan to bring staff back to the office full-time.

A CV is a window into you, your personality, and your expertise – it gives employees a snapshot of you as an employee and your success but getting it perfect can take time.

If your A-Level results didn’t quite work out the way you were told they should, or even if they did but you’re not sure if university is the best option for you, other amazing prospects lie in wait.
