Workforce Australia client, Georgia had been searching for work for a year when she was connected to Job Coach, Rachael, at the Wanneroo atWork Australia office.
At 64-years-old, Georgia had low confidence and belief she would find employment.
Rachael referred Georgia to our in-house Wellness Services for support with her confidence.
To continue to build confidence, she was also referred to our First Steps to Success event. The event allowed Georgia to speak to a range of employers in the region and understand what they were looking for.
“Rachael has been proactive in suggesting courses that align with my interests and career goals,” said Georgia.
She continued to attend employer information sessions and was also connected with our internal money minded program to support her with budgeting while she was seeking work.
“These events have not only been enjoyable but have also provided a valuable social component. I have met some very nice people, who have been incredibly helpful and supportive,” said Georgia.
“There was one event that I initially thought wouldn’t be of much interest to me. However, it turned out to be incredibly enlightening. I ended up gaining new skills and insights that I never even considered before. This has been a game-changer for me.”
Through these events and courses, Georgia’s confidence grew, and she felt ready to apply for roles. Rachael continued to motivate and encourage Georgia, supporting her with applications and interviews.
She soon landed employment. Georgia is also confident in knowing that atWork Australia is by her side through In Work Support, and if she decides to change industries later.
“I cannot express enough how grateful I am for the support and motivation I have received from Rachael, with atWork Australia in the Wanneroo branch. Their dedication to my success has been truly remarkable,” said Georgia.
“One of the standout aspects of my experience has been the variety of events,” said Georgia.
