Quotes from young people using our service:

I've always known what I wanted to do, but now that I need to make choices, I thought that I should just check things out a bit.

I think this is a great website, especially for people who are unemployed. The basket for jobs helps a lot!

Believe in yourself and prepare carefully

A job can come in handy when it comes to paying the bills, but employment can also build confidence and help you develop your personal skills.

Jobs4U is a database with information on hundreds of jobs and careers. Whatever stage you're at, whether you know exactly what you want, or are simply looking for some ideas, this is a great place to start.

Looking for a job can be a test of your determination. You have to believe in your skills and what you can offer to an employer.

Don't forget to research the company before you go to an interview, and arm yourself with all the facts!

Your Job Journey

Suffolk County Council has created a new page on their website for people who need support to get into a job.

You might be long-term unemployed or with physical or learning difficulties, or mental health problems. If so, work preparation programmes, Future Jobs Fund placements, work tasters, work trials and supported employment opportunities are on offer.

You might simply not have enough experience of work to feel confident about getting a job. Perhaps you are at school, university or college and want to get some practical work experience. If so, help is on offer with short-term work experience placements, internships and trainee placements.

Or you might be ready for a job that will help you develop on-the-job skills and qualifications. If so, apprenticeships and National Graduate Development Programme opportunities are on offer.
