About

The Youth Employment Hub offers one-on-one, tailored employment support to young people aged 17-24 living in or accessing the Belconnen area.

Working individually with youth workers to create an Employment Pathways Plan to outline self-identified goals, required supports and pathways. The plan can include resume building, literacy and life skills including interview techniques, as well as training, volunteering and work experience opportunities.

To connect with the Youth Engagement Team or make a referral, visit the Belconnen Youth Centre, call 6264 0200, email youthengagement@crcs.com.au, or search Belconnen Youth Centre on Facebook and Instagram.

COVID Restrictions

Social distancing practices will be in place and options to meet over phone and video call will be available. Hand sanitiser will be provided for all sessions in the Youth Centre.

Here’s how the Employment Hub can help you

Presenting issues

  • A young person contacted the Pathways Hub for assistance with gaining employment
  • The young person had been unemployed and job-seeking for over a year and was discouraged over prospects during the job search.

What we did:

  • Developed a customised support plan related to their employment goals
  • We assisted with revising their resume to be better targeted for the specific jobs they were going for
  • We helped outline employment aspirations and goals
  • Supported to apply for various jobs of interest and assisted with applications

Outcomes

  • This young person received two great job offers in fields of interest
  • They now work between 20-45 hours per week in jobs of their choice

“By the time I came in I was looking for any job in general instead of trying to go for work I would actually enjoy and would suit me. Now I’m a lot more confident about looking for jobs I want. It really did help me cos I’d probably still be looking for work.”
