WA Apprenticeship & Traineeship Intake Guide
Please emphasise to students the importance of having a well-crafted resume and cover letter as part of their application process. Including a cover letter allows them to tell their story, highlight their soft skills, and show genuine interest in the position while aligning with the company’s values.
For students needing assistance with their resumes or cover letters, your local Jobs and Skills Centre can be incredibly helpful. Additionally, Apprenticeship Support Australia’s Skillsroad website provides excellent templates to help them get started. I’ve included links to both resources below.
