Work experience is a short-term (1 day – 1 week), unpaid experience of employment that is typically arranged by schools or colleges.
Work experience allows you to visit a job so you can understand how a company works and the different roles available.
Relevant work experience can help prepare you for a fulfilling career in an area of interest and can help you understand a job role better.

If you are looking to build your CV, HideOut can help you arrange work experience outside curriculum (school/college) time.
