Hi Folks

I am new to this message board and am enquiring on behalf of my granddaughter who has studied hard to become a sports physio without success in getting a job since she finished her college course. She gained 10 GCSE passes at her school and studied a sports physio qualification at college for 2 years and passed with distinction but she cannot get a job anywhere. Gyms appear not to be hiring at the moment and all avenues appear to be closed off to her. A friend of mine who was a qualified nurse suggested she apply to become an assistant physiotherapist on the clinical side but my granddaughter has no idea where these jobs are advertised.

Anyone got any helpful suggestions ?

Hi I have just finished my degree Bsc Sports Therapy (Hons) which I gained a 2:1 in I am struggling to find any work or experience due to not being a member of BASRAT or been HPC registered.
I am very keen to get some hands on experience and dont want to let my degree go to waste.....However
I am considering doing a MSc in Occupational Therapy or nursing mainly because I would like to work for the NHS as a physiotherapist but at the moment the next years intake for MSc is full. I am not sure if this is the way I should be thinking although I need some money and a job due to the student lifestyle for 3 years.

I do on the other hand have an interview at the end of the month for an orthotics assistant which entails a practical exam...Which I have no idea what may be included....? I would much appreciate any advise/ideas!!!


Kind Regards
