Preparing to start a new role can be more expensive than anticipated, especially when you have been unemployed for a period of time.
Kate from Munno Para in South Australia was connected with atWork Australia’s Workforce Australia team.
She worked with Job Coach, Duane, for support to start in a new role.
Unemployed for almost a year, Kate landed herself an interview as a Client Relationship Consultant, however the application included supplying a Police and NDIS check.
“Kate found a role, but she needed support gaining all the paperwork and equipment to do the job,” said Job Coach Duane.
“I assisted with the cost of the NDIS background and police check.”
“We were also able to support Kate with transport into the CBD for her interview.”
“We let Kate know that whatever she might need to start the role, be that uniforms or equipment, we would be able to help her. This helped Kate be more confident in her interview as she didn’t need to worry.”
Both the atWork Australia team and Kate were excited to hear she had been successful in her interview. She did however need her own laptop for the role. Another item atWork Australia was able to support Kate with.
“The atWork Australia team where quick to respond with anything I needed to secure the role,” said Kate.
Kate is now working in a role she can thrive in with an employer who recognises the value every individual brings to the workplace.
