During the day students were given tips as to how best improve their CVs. (It would appear the average judgement on a CV is made in a mere 7-12 seconds.) Students were also given advice on how best to focus in an interview situation with the \u2018STAR\u2019 and \u2018CAR\u2019 techniques being discussed and students later practised their interview techniques when questioned by Lloyd\u2019s of London staff.<br><br>In a carousel-type activity Beal students were given the opportunity to speak to a range of Lloyd\u2019s of London staff with a variety of roles and various degrees of experience about what their jobs involved and how they ended up working for Lloyd\u2019s of London.<br>The students were made aware if they weren\u2019t already that a career in insurance offers excellent career opportunities in the financial sector. Students concluded that although insurance can offer an extremely rewarding career it is at times perhaps unfairly overlooked in favour of the \u2018bright lights\u2019 of investment banking.<br><br>A career in insurance, perhaps via a degree apprenticeship may well be an option that several of those on trip as well as others in Year 12 at Beal now choose to pursue with the quotes below showing how much the students valued the trip.<br><br>Mr. Matheson March 2025<br><em>\u2018\u2026thank you for the Lloyd\u2019s of London opportunity today, it has definitely given me insight into how Lloyd\u2019s of London operates, and has also inspired me to consider a career there.\u2019 AS<\/em><br><br><em>\u2018Thank you for giving me the opportunity to go to the Lloyd\u2019s trip. It was very helpful, and I enjoyed every bit of it.\u2019 IK<br>\u2018I enjoyed yesterday because I learned that it can be the simplest things within an application process that can make me stand out in front of other applicants.\u2019 DE<\/em><br><br><em>\u2018\u2026thank you so much for taking the time to guide us on the Lloyd\u2019s of London trip.
