Interview clothing and preparation from our Working Wardrobe
Working Wardrobe has been set up by Be One Homes to tackle another barrier into employment that so many men and women face today. That barrier is the lack of suitable clothing to wear in order to make a good first impression at the interview.
Work experience opportunities for adults
We know getting into work can seem quite scary if you’ve been out of work for a while or if you’ve never had a job. Our adult work experience programme can help you to build your confidence and gain work related skills, which all helps to make you more employable.
We want you to succeed, so our adult work experience programme is tailored to your needs. As well as part time work experience, we’ll give you the tools and support to track and record your new skills and experience and show you how to use this to get the job. Expect:
- Support to build your confidence.
- CV and application support.
- Dedicated time to search and apply for jobs.
- Career and life coaching.
- Interview clothing and preparation.
