When a company looks to take on a new member of staff, they may have a number of school leavers apply for the position. If the position requires little or no experience and full training is offered, then this will attract many young people looking to work straight after completing school.
Some employers are reluctant to employ school leavers, thinking that they may be unreliable and take up too much time training as they are not used to the work environment, but this is often far from the case. Many young people who leave school to work want to find themselves a career and will put 110% in to any job they do. They often just need a chance to prove themselves and once they are within the company, quickly pick up the working life routines.
The advantage of employing someone fresh out of school is that you can train them up on a job in a way that you want to and do not have to worry about bad habits they may have picked up at previous employment placements.
