JOB SEARCH PAYS OFF

Congratulations go to Kelly, who is starting a new job in April with Family Mosaic. In Thurrock. Kelly said that she owes some of her success to the My L.I.F.E Programme “Job Search” module that she completed as this gave Kelly ideas about things like interview techniques and dressing to impress, leading her to buy new clothes and go through some likely interview questions with her key worker in a role play activity.

Kelly will be starting training for her new position in March and had this to say “I’m very much looking forward to it’. I feel very proud of myself for getting a new job, and its great as it will be in a new environment and I’m hoping this will be for the long term”. Other service users at Sunnyside including Gavin, Alan, Michelle and Matthew, are also looking to get into paid employment, by liaising with their employment advisors, as well as filling out application forms with the help of staff from Sunnyside and again using the “Job Search module from the My Life programme.
