Liam got a job!!!!

Liam attends the Careers Cafe as part of his commitment with the Jobcentre and the Youth Hub project. He is starting as a Compound Driver on a full-time contract having been interviewed and received his uniform.

Super proud of the effort Liam has put into his jobsearch and having done some developmental sessions through CareerShift Boost, had the CV and interview skills to help secure him his role.

Well done Liam 🎉🎉🎉
