Today we started some practical work in our work experience sessions, we started off with a practice trade test to prepare us for trade tests we may have to do when applying for a job!! 

My friend Katy was the therapist this time and had to present everything the way she would as if she was working in a real salon. She would set up her work area, make herself look professional and presentable and introduce herself to me (the employer) as if she was in an interview for a real job.

The task set was to complete a full manicure with a dark colour within the time set of 30 minutes, this is so we knew how far we could go in the set time and would help us work on what we needed to improve on, this was a really good opportunity to prepare us for real life situations.
