You've applied for a job, two weeks have passed and you still haven't heard anything. What should you do next?

Our advice? A and D. Follow up, but keep applying elsewhere.

If the closing date has passed and no recruitment timeline was provided, it's perfectly reasonable to follow up. Keep your message short and professional, confirm that you're still interested in the role and politely ask whether there's an update on the recruitment process.

At the same time, don't put your job search on hold while you wait. Continue exploring and applying for other opportunities that interest you.

It's also worth checking the original job advert for closing dates or expected timelines before getting in touch, and avoid sending repeated follow-ups if you've already asked for an update.

Most importantly, don't automatically assume that no response means you've been unsuccessful. Recruitment processes can sometimes take longer than expected.

And if you do receive an unsuccessful outcome, asking for feedback could give you something useful to take into your next application.

So, would you choose A, B, C or D? Or would you go for a combination? Let us know below.

Fatigue can have a real impact on our judgement, reaction times and ability to focus, making it an important part of staying safe at work.

Throughout August, as part of EKFB’s Sleep Wellbeing Month, our man on the ground, Liam, delivered seven toolbox talks across worksites in Buckinghamshire, reaching more than 600 workers.

The sessions introduced the H.A.L.T. method as a simple way to recognise some of the factors that can affect how we feel and perform at work:

H – Hungry or thirsty?
A – Angry or anxious?
L – Late?
T – Tired?

Recognising these signs early and taking action can help prevent fatigue from affecting concentration, decision-making and, ultimately, safety.

Alongside H.A.L.T., Liam shared practical advice from our Head of HSE, Paul, on managing fatigue and looking after your wellbeing throughout the working day.

A great example of simple conversations making a difference to health and safety on site. Thanks to Liam for getting the message out across site!

As Week comes to a close, we hope this week's posts have shown one important thing: there is no single route to a successful career.

For those who received their results this week, we hope you've been reminded that one set of results does not define your future. Whether you're heading to university, college, an apprenticeship, straight into work, or you're still deciding what comes next, there are many different paths to success.

A huge thank you to Lewis Williamson-Elliot, Jennifer Reilly and Mollie Carter for sharing their career journeys and helping demonstrate that every path is unique. From discovering a passion for connecting people with opportunities, to finding a role that aligns with your core values, to starting a career through an apprenticeship, each story has shown that there is no one "right" way to build a fulfilling career.

Whatever stage you're at, remember that careers evolve, opportunities arise in unexpected places, and it's never too late to change direction.

Good luck to everyone beginning their next chapter.

This week, as part of , we spoke to Mollie Carter about her career journey and the path that brought her to Venesky Brown.

After leaving school, Mollie began her career in retail, where she spent almost three years building valuable skills and gradually taking on more responsibility. When the opportunity arose to join Venesky Brown as a Brand & Social Impact Apprentice, she took the leap into her first office role. Earlier this year, she completed her apprenticeship and is now a Brand & Marketing Assistant.

Mollie's journey is a reminder that it's okay not to have everything figured out after leaving school. Every experience helped build the skills and confidence that led her to where she is today.

This week, as part of , we spoke to Jennifer Reilly about her career journey and the path that brought her to Venesky Brown.

While the industry, the job title and even the country she has worked in have changed, Jen's core desire to help people and the planet has stayed the same.

As Jen puts it:

"It's not about following the exact career path you set out on, but rather finding the core value you hold most dear and having work that supports that value."

Jen's story is a reminder that careers don't always go exactly as planned, but staying true to what matters most to you can lead to opportunities you never expected.

This week, as part of , we spoke to Lewis Williamson-Elliot about his career journey and the path that brought him to Venesky Brown.

Through networking and reaching out to people on LinkedIn, Lewis secured an Operations Manager role with a hospitality recruitment company, recruiting event staff across the UK. In 2023, he joined Venesky Brown, where he continues to enjoy building relationships with clients and helping people find opportunities that can shape their careers.

Lewis' journey is a reminder that your first career choice doesn't have to be your final one. Every experience can teach you something about yourself and help you discover where you truly belong.
