Back to Latest News


St Martin-In-The-Fields welcomed St. James Place Wealth Management team to the 6th Form for a careers and finance workshop. Twenty lucky students studying a range of subjects had the opportunity to participate in four workshops covering employability skills such as interviews, CVs, presentation skills and personal finance. SJP staff were able to share some successful interview techniques to enhance pupils confidence and employability. The CV workshop also enabled pupils analyse their strengths, identify skills and match them to relevant tasks. Each pupil then had the opportunity to put their new knowledge into practice by participating in a mock interview. This provided some invaluable interview practice in a constructive and supportive environment. Each pupil has been provided with written feedback which they can be used for further personal development.

As a consequence of an outstanding interview Seun Adewuyi had been offered Work Experience with St. James Place to commence in the summer 2018.  The workshop has given pupils a valuable insight into the world of work and provided key employability skills.


“Staff from St. James Place were extremely helpful in terms of offering advice regarding CV’s and interview tips.  I gained more from the experience than I expected it. I think it was because they were able to offer advice from a businesses perspective.’ Seun Adewuyi
