The students were put into small groups and had 5 minutes to quiz their business volunteer, who was only allowed to answer yes or no thereby requiring the students to try & guess their profession. A further 5 minutes of frantic questioning followed to ascertain exactly what they did for a living and how they had got where they were. A whistle sounded and another willing volunteer from a different profession presented themselves for questioning.
It was fast, frenetic and enormous fun with the students commenting afterwards “I was astonished by the range of different career choices available that I didn’t know existed”, and "I so enjoyed the variety of jobs and questioning their roles and really enjoyed meeting real life businessmen & women." Additionally many of the students felt that with the right attitude & experience anything is possible and many commented “This was a fantastic event and should be offered to all schools.” What was clear from their feedback was that it had really changed their perception of what the future holds for them & makes it seem less daunting.
