Looking for your new or perhaps first work opportunity can be confusing and even daunting. There are choices to be made so it can be helpful to have someone who is both informed yet neutral who will listen to you, offer suggestions and advice and answer your questions.
Catholic husbands and wives from your local area who have been employers and senior employees, are fully experienced and sometimes professionally qualified, are prepared to share their skills and experience in supporting your effort and seek to make your job search a success.
There is a national body of Catholic husbands and wives who really want to help you by offering advice, information, insights and even real hands-on help. Any and every interaction between you and of them is 100% confidential. We know that for all of us the loss of a job can be particularly harmful to a person’s feeling of self worth. Even finding the confidence to begin the job search process really can be better with the support of friends.
They say that all change is bad, even good change. Every year there seems to be new skills required in the workplace and even the way we apply for jobs changes. Expectations of employers are different too and yet somehow and despite these changes your experience remains valuable - if only you can get across what you offer... If only you can get the opportunity of an interview...
As with everything, there is a path to learning the best way. There is no reason to reinvent the wheel if you will take the time to read about or listen to others' experience and take on board the processes required. Learn the best way to get your application considered and your message across. It isn't easy but it is better with friends helping you along the way and supporting your efforts.
All it needs is for you to send an email, a message or a text if you need specific advice. Otherwise, you will have access here to a range of materials and people that may aid your job search and applications.
Why do we do this? Because there are lots of people like you and like us who have to either make their first entry into the workplace or at a later time in their lives need to make a change and find a new work opportunity. We want to help if we can.
We are building and will continue to build helpful materials that may benefit the job seeker. But we are also building a range of materials that will benefit our hard working Mentors who may be visiting schools or parishes and will need productive and up to date materials to show and leave. We are creating a range of professional quality audio/video materials, advice sheets and info-notes, handouts, MS PowerPoints and infographics to get us started. We are also going to soon provide some helpful stress relieving tips to get you ready for THAT interview or to help in dealing with the stress of looking for that new opportunity….
