When First Nations client, Jarome, met with Job Coach Zubda, she spent the time to get to know him. This helped Zubda create a tailored plan to help Jarome reach his employment goals.
“During our discussions, Jarome expressed a strong interest in obtaining employment within the warehouse industry,” said Zubda.
“Together we then identified several barriers impacting his progress, including the need for further upskilling, and how financial instability was impacting his goals.”
To help Jarome gain the skills he needed, he was connected to a course to gain his forklift ticket. Then to further improve his job readiness and increase his employment opportunities he was enrolled in an RF scanning course.
During his study, Jarome used public transport to attend his training, with atWork Australia providing public transport support.
Warehousing roles often require late or early starts and can be in locations with limited public transport. So, in addition to the financial support to enrol in essential upskilling courses, Jarome was financially supported to regain his driver’s licence.
“This support has helped remove barriers to employment and improve Jarome’s capacity to secure sustainable work in the warehouse sector,” said Zubda.
Jarome then participated in a MoneyMinded course run by atWork Australia, to support him to learn budgeting skills and confidence.
Now that Jarome had everything he needed to succeed in a Warehousing role, Zubda began calling employers on his behalf.
He successfully landed work in a warehousing role.
“My experience with my Job Coach, Zubda, has been excellent and highly professional. She has consistently provided valuable support and guidance throughout my job search journey,” said Jarome.
“I would confidently recommend atWork Australia, and Job Coach, Zubda, to anyone seeking employment support, as her dedication and expertise truly made a positive difference in my employment journey,” said Jarome.
