The Right Tools For Sucess

 

John had been unemployed since March 2005 and joined the New Deal Intensive Activity Period with Seetec's Chelmsford centre in May 2007. Prior to his period of unemployment, John had felt unsettled in his work resulting in frequent job changes; he had been a Mobile Service Engineer, Bus Driver, Taxi Driver and Mobile Sky Installer.

 

As a youngster he had also started an apprenticeship in Mechanics but unfortunately he didn't finish the course due to the company folding. John had a keen interest in mechanics but had last worked in this field over 12 years ago and knew his skills and knowledge were out of date.

 

Cindy, Senior Employment Consultant, helped John with restructuring his CV and referred him to Leigh, Placement Co-ordinator to identify a suitable work placement, where John could update his skills.

 

Leigh referred John to Nationwide Autocentre and after a successful interview he started his placement on 4th June. John has really impressed his employer with his commitment, motivation and working skills and has since been offered a full time position by the Manager. He started work on Monday 25th June.
