Getting a job is a job in itself



Getting a job is a job in itself

 

A Jobclub is a place, where long term unemployed people work at finding a job in a professional and systematic way by adopting a businesslike approach. The first Jobclubs, developed from work done in North America, were opened in 1984. They proved popular and successful and the service expanded rapidly.

Jobclubs take a bold and positive stance: there is a job available for each member. Aim: to provide people who are unemployed for 26 weeks or more with facilities to enable them to find the best possible job within the shortest possible time.

Jobclubs provide a simple, straightforward approach to help clients find jobs. Jobclub members agree to attend four half days per week. The Jobclub provides use of photocopiers, telephones and typewriters free of charge. Trade magazines and specialist magazines are also available.

Getting a job is a job in itself

 

There may be special types of Jobclubs to help disadvantaged people. Executive and Management Jobclubs are also available in some areas, which provide support for middle and senior managers.

The Work Trials can be regarded as an extended interview. Work Trials offer an employer a period of up to 15 days to observe the jobseeker within the workplace. They also give the jobseeker the opportunity to demonstrate their skills and experience to that employer. In addition, they enable the jobseeker to determine their own suitability for that job.

Jobplan Workshops are to help people who have been out of work for 12 months or more back into work or training. Jobplan aims to build participants’ resilience to setbacks they may encounter whilst looking for work. Attendance at a Jobplan Workshop gives priority access to ED programmes (education programmes).

RECRUITMENT

When a company needs to recruit new people, it can give an announcement in the «NEED HELP» section of a newspaper.

People who are looking for a job can send a letter of application or covering letter (US cover letter) and a curriculum vitae or CV (in US — resume) containing details of their education and experience. A company may ask candidates to fill up a standard application form. The company’s Hu­man Resources department selects the most suitable applications and prepares a short list of candidates or' applicants, who are invited to attend an Interview.

Companies can hire people using the services of a recruitment agency (in US — search firm), which pro­vides a list of suitable can­didates.

A growing number of companies are no longer satisfied with traditional job interviews. Sometimes they give the candidates a series of written tests. These tests are not about mathe­matics or grammar. By these tests employers want to evaluate candidates on the following qualities:

• Does the candidate have creative and entrepreneurial abilities?

• Can the candidate be a leader?

• Is the candidate flexible and capable of learning?

• Does the candidate have enough skills and know­ledge?

I believe you have had some secretarial and commercial training.
