“Aspire advertised, shortlisted and pre-screen interviewed a number of Apprentice candidates before sending 6 finalists to us for a formal interview. We were that blown away by their enthusiasm and drive, we decided to employ 4 even though we had initially only planned to employ 2!”

“I enjoyed the discussions and presentations a lot as we were able to share best practice with colleagues”
