I’ve just read your article on Will securing a job with VCCP and all I can say to him is well done.

My anger, sadly, is with these large firms in the first place. Had Will applied to this company with a CV as most people do, chances are he would not even get a reply saying thanks, but no thanks.

It took him to think out of the box to be recognised.

While I applaud this way of thinking, when you’ve sent endless CVs and received nothing, not so much as an acknowledgment of anything you become deflated.

These companies, big and small, don’t give people a chance. They could have turned away endless people that may have been fantastic for their companies, but they have never given those people the opportunity to show their worth.

Well done Will. I hope others like you can find decent jobs with a little perseverance.
