Local people looking to develop their interview and presentation skills are being invited to book onto a free workshop taking place at the Hyndburn Jobs Fair on Thursday 20th March.

The Jobs Fair will take place between 9am and 3pm in Accrington Town Hall, with the ‘Interview Preparation and Presentation Skills Workshop’ running from 10am to 12pm.

The topics which will be covered during the two-hour workshop include making a winning first impression, how to answer interview questions with ease, delivering presentations with impact and how to boost your confidence through practice.

Between 1pm and 3pm, Hyndburn Borough Council will also be running a ‘Working from Home’ workshop delivered by Kat Rutter from ‘The Work From Home Hub’, which will explore how to find and apply for work from home roles, as well as providing tips and tricks to enhance applications, plus much more.

There will also be a special appearance at the event from Emma Rothwell, a proud Accringtonian who set up a thriving online business and featured on this year’s BBC The Apprentice.
