Once you have gone through the steps of preparing for work, we can begin to help you to find a job. As always, we use your employment plan to guide us through the steps of looking for work.

Job Quest can help you to plan and prepare your résumé as well as cover letters to go out to individual employers. A résumé outlines your skills, knowledge and work experiences. A cover letters explains how your skills, knowledge and work experience “fit’ with employer’s needs and the position for which you are applying.

Most people find job interviews very intimidating. We can help you to prepare by arranging practice interviews with actual employers. We can also support you in actual interviews and meetings with employers.

Once you find work, we help you to keep your job.
