Life stage transitions

Starting Work

Starting a new job is both exciting and full of new challenges. While some young people are looking only to earn some spare cash, others are seeking specific skills and experiences that are aligned with the career they're aspiring for. Looking for work and approaching a company for a position can be overwhelming. Whether a company accepts or rejects to take the person on board can make a difference to their self esteem. For any person making the transition from school to work, it is important to stay positive and to keep trying - there are always resources, courses and people in the field to talk to for support.
