I thought Job Connect was a service for youth between the ages of 16 and 24?
The program does help a lot of young people find employment or set career goals. As many youth face challenges in finding work because they may lack work experience, the program advocates on their behalf with local employers to help get started. Prior to finding employment, our training consultants prepare our clients for work, by offering helpful workshops and guidance. We work on things like interview preparation, career planning, and how to conduct a job search. In some cases the program can provide financial assistance to employers who hire Job Connect clients, to help cover training costs.
