When Samara first met our Parent Pathways team in Gosford, NSW, she had no employment history. She was, however, capable and willing to work.
Today, she’s employed in a role where no two days look the same — café shifts, kitchen work, hosting children’s parties and learning reception. Safe to say, she isn’t bored!
How Parent Pathways supported Samara
Our team worked alongside Samara to:
- Identify her transferable skills
- Explore roles that matched her strengths
- Research potential employers
- Craft a professional résumé
- Obtain her birth certificate and Working with Children Check
- Prepare for interviews
- Access interview clothing
How to get a job with no employment history
For many parents, time out of the workforce doesn’t mean time without skills. Raising children builds organisation, patience, problem-solving and the ability to juggling competing priorities under pressure. These are all things employers value.
Our Parent Pathways team can help you translate that experience into something an employer recognises.
