“I had been working all my life and then became unemployed which knocked my confidence and motivation. The project helped me gain confidence in myself and gave me a motivation boost. I was encouraged to attend wellbeing sessions and started jobsearching with the help of my Coach and received a job interview. I was a little nervous so my Coach provided me with information on interview tips and preparation. I have been offered the job which I have accepted!”
Friday 26th June 2020 is Employability Day. To celebrate, here is some feedback from participants.
