I applied for the A S Wealth Management scholarship as I believed it would help me towards my goal of achieving the best possible result in my HND and finding a job in the financial sector.

Gaining this scholarship allowed me to feel motivated as I felt I had achieved something. It helped me feel motivated towards finishing my course and doing the best that I could. In the end, I achieved this as I gained a grade A in my course work, which I was very pleased with.

The scholarship was very helpful as I gained useful information about the financial sector and I was pleased to be invited into the AS Wealth Management office where I had a discussion about the financial sector and the jobs available and got useful advice about getting a job. It was very helpful to get advice on my CV as it gave me the confidence to know that it is a good CV, with some tips on how I could improve it. It allowed me to know that it would not become a barrier when applying for jobs.

I want to thank A S Wealth Management for the opportunity of the scholarship as it has been a useful step towards getting a full-time job in my desired area and giving me the motivation to do as well as I possibly can. I am also delighted that I have now secured an Apprentice role with a Pensions Company and want to thank Andrew for his advice, which helped me in achieving this.
