It was a general article, it wasn't a specfic job advertisement. Write to all the TP and try and get a voluntary day or evening as thats what they put in the article. Let me know if you find anything.

Don't know TBH the only thing it is mainly dealing with dogs, so prob no the best place to try and train at least it will give you a foot on the ladder and maybe under take ANA or VCA cert. if you don't have correct qualifications to go onto VN training straight away.

Good luck, keep us posted.

Brilliant!! Thanks, Nick!

I've just downloaded the application form and I will get writing/pleading!!! Just out of interest, does the job suggest that you would get to train and qualify as a VN or just that you would be assisting the vets. Not that it matters as it would be an amazing experience and training oppertunity!

Thanks again for your help! I'll let you know if I get an interview!

Hi Nick,

I must have missed that one! Was it recent? I've looked through the jobs back to April and I didn't see it - I'll check again or maybe it's been removed. Thanks for that though, I'll keep looking!!

Hi Katie,

Thanks for that - I don't suppose you happen to know what area of Warrington it was or what the practice is called?

Many thanks! Tara

My parents live in Warrington and it said in the paper that they are looking for trainees in that area. It said get work experience one day a week to show your dedication and you will be up to get a place a lot quicker, good luck let me know how you get on
