Whittaker's Education to Employment Programme

Miki Tito —

A group of students went to visit Whittaker's on Thursday 11th of March as part of a new employment programme.

The students sent their CVs into Whittaker's and participated in an information session and short interview.

They are part of a programme that helps bridge the gap between school and work. This is the first time Whittaker's has joined up with a school and the relationship is solely with Mana College. The students listened to two ex-Mana students (Jayden and Hoia) about their Career journey from school and the roles they now have at Whittaker's.

The programme will provide the students with mentoring skills in Health and Safety and Food Safety, and Holiday employment.
