3rd July
On day three, I completed my non-starter task and attended team briefings in the Penthouse, which provided valuable insights into teamwork at QCS Staffing. Jay then introduced Ella and me to the Delivery team, explaining the roles of Business Winners and Delivery Executives. I found this very interesting and well-explained.
We then had a Teams call with Hannah, a remote DE, who shared why she loves her role at QCS Staffing. It was clear that the team is passionate about their work. Charlotte from Marketing and Virginie from Delivery took me out for lunch, allowing me to ask questions about their career paths and roles at QCS Staffing. This conversation was extremely insightful for my future career considerations.
After lunch, Guy explained the Life Sciences division and QCS Staffing's role in it, which was new to me. Ella and I then shadowed Charlotte in Marketing, learning how the team attracts candidates and clients. We also shadowed Holly in HR, understanding the team’s operations and responsibilities.

On day four, I had my CV reviewed by Dan via Teams. He provided valuable suggestions to improve my CV for future job searches, making sure it’s the best it can be. I then continued working on my presentation for Friday. Faye reviewed my LinkedIn page and sent a helpful checklist to enhance my profile.
The day ended early as we went to support QCS Staffing's five-a-side football teams in a charity tournament. Although QCS Staffing didn’t bring home the all-important week, it was very entertaining watching everyone play!

On my last day, I completed my remaining tasks, including finalizing my presentation. I presented it to Holly, showcasing everything I had learned and enjoyed during the week. Finally, I attended the end-of-week presentation in the Penthouse to finish off my week at QCS Staffing.
Thank you to everyone at QCS Staffing for being so welcoming and helpful, I have met some incredible people! Special thanks to Holly S, Iasmyn, and Dave for organizing this week and making it fantastic for me. QCS Staffing is a fantastic work environment with amazing teams, and I hope to return one day!
