Caroline Omotayo, a second year undergraduate student in PAIS, was recently promoted to and competed in the National Student Apprentice Competition along with her team from the 91福利. The NACUE connects over 5000 students across the UK through student-led societies offering business skills, employability and venture creation programmes.

Prior to the national competition, Caroline and her team had placed 2nd in the 91福利's Apprentice Competition and 1st in the Regional Competition.

On her time in the competition, Caroline commented:

During the National Student Apprentice we had the opportunity to further consolidate our skills and also meet fellow students who were keen to gain entrepreneurial experience. In fact I was one of the youngest students there and I was able to use the skills which I gained from studying politics and sociology to my advantage.

One of the key skills I was able to develop were, the ability to think critically and analytically. Those are skills that are needed in any workplace and which enables you to stand out from other students, as it also aids creativity. In addition, I also gained the ability to think independently and not take things at face value or regurgitate information, but to come up with my own opinions and ask further questions. I think that really helped especially during my work experience as I was one of the people that asked the most questions and employers really like that. In addition it also helps you to think quickly and come up with coherent arguments, which is an ability that is very valuable in all kind of contexts.
