In this blog I will share with you the impact that isolation has had on young people and the ways in which you can continue to progress, become confident and work towards success from the comfort of your home.
HOW HAS THE PANDEMIC AFFECTED YOUNG PEOPLE?
ISOLATION, a term that has defined most of our lives in 2020. Globally we have been forced into isolation, quarantine and generally, into and day-to-day lives that are alien to us! With all of this combined, along with added economic uncertainty and pressures, it is no surprise that we are lacking in confidence and are finding ourselves increasingly anxious. How are you coping? Are you ok? Questions that we often ask one another but quite often brush over because admitting that you are not ok and not coping can sometimes be more difficult than keeping it to yourself. Being denied our fun social life and opportunity to date we are really feeling alone and low.
Unfortunately, those aged 16-24 have been among the hardest hit by the pandemic. This is because they are most at risk of unemployment and now more than ever, are faced with reduced opportunities for employment and training.
• A survey by the ‘Resolution Think Tank’ discovered that a third of people aged 18-24 had lost work because of the pandemic.
• Despite their connection to social media, 51% of Gen Z prefers to communicate with co-workers, friends, and family face-to-face rather than through messaging.
• The ‘Hope not Hate’ campaign group found that 55% of the young people surveyed believed that their options for the future had been limited.
I am here to tell you that yes, it may seem like (on the surface) your prospects have been limited, but this does not mean that you have to delay or halt your progress. With limited opportunities you need to be the most attractive candidate to an employer and be able to be adaptable to do multiple tasks so you can apply for a wider range of roles.
WHAT 3 THINGS SHOULD YOU DO?

3 steps to beat isolation and be successful
1. Dedicate time to learning and development. There are plenty of free resources out there you can tap into. If you want to make sure you are getting the right training and you really want to WOW an employer then show them you have had training and support from proven trusted training provider or trainer.
2. Belief in yourself and be confident. To do this you need to surround yourself with like minded people that inspire, guide, and support you. These are not always your besties; they are people who share the same goals as you and understand what you want and what you need to get there
3. Connect and join networks that help you learn, grow, and get introductions to employers and customers
