Angus came to OCTEC Transition to Work in the ACT with limited job search experience, leading to a lack of confidence. He began working with consultant Gunjanjot, who found him to be a pleasant young man with excellent interpersonal skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Angus had a Bachelor Degree and a passion for art. To improve his confidence and job search skills, Gunjanjot introduced Angus to a targeted training program, involving the development of a r\u00e9sum\u00e9 and how to write cover letters which addressed the essential criteria of an advertised vacancy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
They conducted mock job interviews, focusing on the top 50 questions commonly asked by employers. Despite some early rejections, Angus and Gunjanjot continued to meet regularly, using each rejection as an opportunity to refine Angus\u2019 interview skills and approach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In time, Angus was offered two positions, including a Visitor Experience Host at the prestigious National Gallery of Australia in Canberra. Gunjanjot provided post-placement mentoring and support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Neisha continued working with Amber and her Group Training Field Officer to monitor progress, and the news has been extremely positive. In fact, Amber recently received a performance bonus from her employer in recognition of the great work she\u2019s been doing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\u201cOCTEC helped me in many ways when finding employment. When it came to interviews, Gunjanjot\u2019s guidance significantly helped with my confidence and gave me practice material and constructive feedback to work with. Now I have found a position that has allowed me to enter the career that I wanted.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
