Go Girls Work Ready Program
The Go Girls Work Ready Program is a sequential four-month program that assists 10 to 12 women in need, to become work ready. It is different from other employment programs as it develops job skills and at the same time has a strong focus on positive psychology. The focus on personal development enables women to overcome obstacles that traditionally get in the way of successfully becoming employed.
All participants are given the opportunity to develop a resume, practice interview skills, job search, explore employment opportunities and prepare for job interviews. The women experience a sense of belonging to the Go Girl Community where credible industry links and mentors play an important role throughout their transition. Skills developed along the way are: organisational, communication, goal setting and planning, evaluating and problem-solving.
The Go Girls Work Ready Program includes women of all ages from diverse backgrounds: women who are long-term unemployed, victims of domestic violence, teen mothers, women from migrant backgrounds and women experiencing difficulty. Throughout the program, the participants display increased levels of responsibility and take more directed and focused action. The women gain a stronger sense of self and have more control of their life. This invariably has a ripple effect on their significant others and as a result, whole families and communities can be influenced in a positive way.
