I wasn't sure where best to post this question so sorry if this isn't the right board.
I'm turning 31 in a few weeks and have just had my 2nd child. Just before I gave birth I completed my NVQ level 3 in beauty therapy and was part way through nail services level 2. I had also completed an oncology treatments course (pending case studies).
I'll be looking for 2 days a week work in the new year which I know is going to be niche and difficult to find. Unfortunately I don't feel confident enough to set up on my own straight away.
What I want to know is how do I make myself appealing to employers with no salon experience? I looked at doing an advanced waxing course but do you think that sort of thing will make much of a difference, or would that be the sort of thing I'd likely receive training on anyway?
Do you think people would rather employ a school leaver on a lower minimum wage?
As you can tell, I'm worried! Any suggestions about how to make myself employable would be greatly appreciated!
