Arun has spent most of his career working in hospitality, he transitioned to employment services in 2023.
Arun’s been able to use his past work experiences to support others to enter the hospitality industry.
“I had a client who wanted to work in hospitality. They hadn’t had employment in over 12 years,” said Arun.
“I helped them to upskill through a course called ‘Serve It Up’ on Customer Service, Cross-Sector Infection Control skill set, and complete a food handling certificate.”
“I then brought a suitable position to the client, which they were excited about. They have now been working in the hospitality industry for four months.”
But it’s not just hospitality that Arun supports his clients with. He enjoys the variety of topics, employment goals and different ways support can be meaningful to his clients.
“I enjoy my role because it gives me the opportunity to help people, share knowledge, and engage in meaningful conversations. I love the variety of topics I get to explore; I get to contribute in ways that are meaningful to others.”
For example, a client of Arun’s needed support to build a routine to help them succeed in employment.
He took the time to get to know the client and what interested them. He then encouraged them to participate in a free yoga class next to our office. The client would then come in and say ‘hi’ to Arun each time to show they were sticking to the routine.
From here they have moved on to discussing a career task at each appointment.
“My client started to feel more confident. They opened up to exploring different industries and job options which resulted in my client finding a job she preferred and is happy with.”
