Taster objective

Ayukebang wanted some quality work experience to enhance her CV. At the time she was a third year student with no experience. GO Wales organised a 5 day taster at Doyle's Finance Ltd.

Taster outcome

Ayukebang Etah-Akoh's GO Wales work taster with Doyle's Finance was such a success that she was offered a placement with the company she explains:

“Being a 3rd year student with no work experience, panic began to set in!”

“Luckily I was signposted to GO Wales work tasters who made me look at my problem from a different angle. They organised a five day work taster for me with Doyle's Finance Ltd, and it so happened that this company was working on a major project at the time so they requested that the work taster be converted to a 10 week paid part time placement.”

“Mr Doyle my employer was a great teacher and a friend and I have acquired many skills which will benefit me over my lifetime. My work taster in Doyle's Finance was nothing short of being perfect as I could not wish for anything better.”

“I am very grateful to GO Wales (Cardiff team) for all their support, and would recommend the scheme highly!”

Doyle's benefited from having a placee with excellent research skills, the ability to work confidently with clients, and someone who could develop strong working relationships within the team leading to the successful launch of their new website.
