HSBC’s Global Community Partnership Day




HSBC’s Global Community Partnership Day

HSBC’s Global Community Partnership Day took place on the 25th June 2010, organised by staff and volunteers to integrate with local communities. HSBC partnered with Holy Cross School for a CV and Careers advice day. Following an introductory talk by HSBC on the history of the global company, Jairo Ouko from Eximius Group coordinated CV workshops, interactive interview sessions and offered invaluable career advice to the students.

The students were divided into groups of 6 and performed role plays throughout each session. Take-home information cards produced by Eximius Group also offered key pointers of CV writing and Interview techniques.

Jairo reported that the students were incredibly enthusiastic and receptive to improving their CVs. He comments: “I felt absolutely privileged to be able to assist these talented young ladies with their CVs which will have a direct benefit to them in securing future work. The day was a complete success and I will be putting myself forward to participate next year”.

Each team including Jairo’s desk within Eximius IT, has invited a total of 10 students to come for work experience during the summer holidays.
