Hi everyone

Iv got an assesment day with Laing O'Rourke next wednesday to do there electrical installation appreticeship with them. Was just wondering if anyone could offer some advice? Iv got to do a ten minute powerpoint presentation on why I have chosen this career path and why with Laing O'Rourke, with enthosis on health and safety throughout.

I was thinking that I would include :-

- How I was introduced to the industry
-Why I chose this trade
-Why I think a 4 year apprenticeship is the best way to train
-Why I want to do it with Laing O'Rourke
-Why I think I am sutible <<(Include health and safety here)
-The benefits of it e.g pay, good training

I was just wondering if anyone could give me any other pionters on what I should include?

Any help would be much apprieciated thankyou.

Hi,

This is my experience when I applied to LOR last year.. had a telephone interview and got asked along to the assessment day, after the assessment day i wasn't offered a position tho

The telephone interview was fairly straight forward they asked questions such as what did i know about the consruction industry, what a typical day on site was, type of working conditions etc.

The assessment day was much harder i had to do a 10 minute presention, a few timed appititude tests such as maths, problem solving etc along with an interview asking about different scenarios.

Hope this helps and good luck..
