Individualised Employment Pathway Plan:  In consultation with you, we tailor an employment  plan that takes into account your specific needs within the workplace.

Resume & Cover Letters: Few people like to write them, many people struggle with them. Fortunately, there is help at hand. We will help you construct these job-hunting essentials to employer-preferred format and in a way that presents you in your best light.

Interview Technique Training: As unfair as it may seem, sometimes the person who gets the job isn't the most qualified, but the one who performs best in the interview. Their secret? Preparation that the competition neglected to do.  Interview technique training is proven to help boost confidence, overcome nerves, and secure that job.

Marketing You: In keeping with our commitment to holisitic support, we will market your skills, abilities and experience to local employers.

Non-Vocational Issues Support: If there are other difficulities in your life, we can help secure assistance such as counselling, mental health specialists, health organisations, substance abuse support and homeless agencies.

Training & Work Experience: Often the best route to employment, a range of funded and non-funded vocational training, pre-employment training and work experience opportunities are available.

Workplace Modifications: In collaboration with your employer, we will arrange any workplace modifications needed to help you do the job.

Ongoing Support: Congratulations on your new job!  Getting a job was one challenge, but starting a new job can bring a whole new set  of challenges, especially if you haven't worked for a while. We understand  this, and so we don't leave you to cope on your own. We provide continued support to help you smooth any of those transitional wrinkles or deal with any difficulties you may be experiencing.
