Digital Employability Skills

Improving digital skills for employment

Digital is changing our lives, how we apply for jobs, and how work in a new digital era. This means that having the digital skills, motivation, and confidence to use the internet is becoming essential for life and work.

 

Applying for jobs

Digital skills can help you find and apply for jobs. They make it easier to prepare for an interview and help you succeed. Many jobs are only advertised online. You’ll often need to apply using an online application form or by emailing a CV. The job selection process may also include online tests or a video interview. Knowing how to cope with these will improve your job chances.

We offer tailored pre-employment
support and workshops

How to create a digital CV and cover letter

Learn more about why it is essential to have a digital version of your CV, and how to identify and highlight strengths, skills, and experiences that are relevant to the job you are applying for. Attendees will discover why quality over quantity is important when making job applications.

How to use recruitment agencies and job boards to work on your behalf

Learn how to team up with relevant recruitment agencies that can work on your behalf when seeking employment. This workshop will cover networking both online and offline, and provide tips that will help set you apart from other candidates.

How to use social media to find new job opportunities

Learn how to use social media to identify new job opportunities and how to automate the job searching process. This workshop focuses on the top three social media sites used for employment and covers the importance of having an online social presence to secure a new job.

How to succeed in online and face-to-face interviews

This workshop will help you to prepare for various interview formats and learn more about both verbal and non-verbal communication. The workshop covers online interview formats including pre-recorded interviews, and what you need to consider and do in order to succeed.

Bespoke support for your group or organisation

  • Fully integrating digital skills into employability programmes, both to fulfil practical requirements (such as uploading a CV, applying for jobs online), and as part of building personal resilience and the ability to adapt in a digital economy.
  • Ensuring the journey to employment is joined up, by understanding what employers want and what motivates them, and by engaging and partnering with them as a critical part of the employment and progression pathway.
  • Focusing on tackling lack of basic digital skills and confidence as barriers to employment, through working in partnership with existing (national and local) practice and programmes, and maximising new opportunities.

Digi Skills have been a pleasure to work with. Their keen eye for detail and passion for business development is second to none. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend them.
Markus
Managing Director
Digi Skills has supported the recruitment plans for my business on a recent engagement. The whole process was easy and straightforward. As a new business, we needed support in planning an interview strategy and training our team on how to interview effectively. We found the right candidate promptly and the team is helping us with ongoing training and development of our staff. I look forward to our continued business relationship and can highly recommend Digi Skills!
Greg
Business Process Manager
I think we all can agree that not all employment support agencies are the same. The job search can be a rollercoaster, with emotional highs and lows. My experience with Digi Skills was just the opposite. The communications could NOT have been better. They exceeded all my expectations helping me through the interview process, building my confidence, and bringing out the best in me. Looking for support in changing jobs? Digi Skills will exceed what you are hoping for in terms of support, communication, and knowledge.
