tangoman444 Posted January 1, 2004 Share Posted January 1, 2004 (edited) Hi i'm 16, live in London and i've finished my gcses and just started my AS levels, and i have to do some work shadowing for school. I've got a good idea that i'd like to work in "The City" (ie Banks etc) after i've finished University, but i don't know where to begin to look for work shadowing. I was wondering if any of u British Neowinians can help me out...any sites/links.phone numbers would be most appreciated. Cheers :laugh: Edited January 1, 2004 by tangoman444 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lewtron Posted January 1, 2004 Share Posted January 1, 2004 I've never heard of work shadowing, but I suggest you simply write or email (probably best to write a letter) to any company you like the sound of explaining what you need to do, and see if any would be willing to take you on.

ServaCom Posted January 1, 2004 Share Posted January 1, 2004 Would this be like Work Experience? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tangoman444 Posted January 2, 2004 Author Share Posted January 2, 2004 Would this be like Work Experience? Yes, but work shadowing just involves following a person around for a short period of time (A week) and seeing how they do their job basically :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[ timko ] Posted January 2, 2004 Share Posted January 2, 2004 My sister works in Natwest at the Cheapside street branch next to Bank tube station. (yes both the street name and tube station are real and not made up -> http://www.natwest.com/natwesttools/branch...g.asp?Cheapside !) :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
