We love having people in for work experience and have had several candidates over the last couple of years. The placement gives them an insight into all departments of Antone and the inside workings of a business. We set a task where they are asked to design a countertop unit for a makeup or skincare product. They choose material samples, write up a quote for a potential client and then create a powerpoint presentation, resulting in a 10 minute presentation to a couple Antone team members at the end of the week.
We had the pleasure of welcoming Sophie for a week in July. She is due to start university in 2024 and having a clear creative flair alongside being a great artist, she was very interested in seeing the transition of our client’s ideas and designs coming to life. Sophie not only researched the market well, but she also created a stunning mood board alongside a fabulous design which she has quoted, developed and manufactured – including her own hand drawn artwork as part of the design! The week finished with Sophie presenting back which she did magnificently well.
Following on from Sophie, we welcomed Finn to the Antone fold for a three-day work experience. Finn also embraced a brief and soon got to work on a premium design, which was then quoted and drawn, ready for the shopfloor where he eagerly awaited the challenge of being involved in the manufacture of his very own design. He enjoyed this process immensely, alongside learning about the business and everything else we do as part of the project process. Finn did a great job and presented back his ideas to the team very confidently.
