Jobs of the Week are live!

This week's features include a number of opportunities in Hospitality from The Foveran, the Deerness Distillery and Judith Glue, as well as an opening for a Tyre Fitter with Iain Laird. We've also included an Engineering apprenticeship from SSE, which is closing this Sunday - if you're interested, get your application in quick!

During an interview, if you can, try to relate your skills and experience to the role. This could be something as simple as spending time using a home computer. Employers often look for computer literacy in potential candidates (even in industries you might not expect!), and they'll usually list this in the person specification.
