Jake’s CardiffWorks Experience

After Jake was made redundant, he didn’t know where to turn. Luckily, he applied for a temporary role via Cardiff Works. The team coached him through the process of securing work, even when he almost lost hope.

“The Cardiff Works Team were wonderful. I had two unsuccessful interviews prior to finding the correct placement, the team coached me and helped me maintain my motivation and confidence prior to the right opportunity coming along.”

Jake has now been with Cardiff Council for five and a half years. He started as a Temporary Administrative Assistant, before successfully applying for a permanent role, in which he has progressed even further.

Jake has already recommended Cardiff Works to a few of his friends, and they have all accessed employment.

“The experience I had with CardiffWorks changed my life. I’d been made redundant from my previous job, they helped get my life back on track. Without CardiffWorks I’ve no idea what I’d have done.”
