The recession affected high street stores and businesses alike, but people most badly hit were younger generations.
In order to help out the growing number of unemployed, the government has vowed to help, launching the National Apprentice Week.
Most employers are impressed by enthusiasm and drive of apprentices, whilst apprentices also learn the business and skills necessary in order to fit easily into the workplace.
The good news in all of this is that companies are expecting to initiate recruitment drives once more and therefore the government is keen for some of these to be apprentices.
Retailers who are planning on recruiting apprentices include Morrions, who plan to create 20,000 apprenticships, whilst Crossrails will be creating 400.
According to apprenticships minister Kevin Brennan: “Last year 143,000 people completed an apprenticeship, helping to give them the skills and experience they need to get on at work.”
So, hang in there if your currently looking for work or are struggling, an apprentiship could be for you!
