28-year-old Jacob Whitby has used the service and has some words of advice for those that don’t know what their next step is.

Jacob said: "After A-levels and university I still wasn’t certain what I wanted to do as a career. I also needed to get some work experience which is why I contacted the Staffordshire Jobs and Careers Service.

“The team were great and helped arrange a 12-week placement with the county council which helped build up my skills and practical experience. It was brilliant when I secured the full-time job as a business support officer. I’d recommend the service to anyone.
