Looking for Work

Work or Train? Why not both?

Whether you've just left school, are returning to work after a career break, are looking for a change or have been out of work for some time it's best to approach the task of looking for a job in the same way. 

The first thing you need to do is to decide whether finding a job is the best option or whether it would be better if you looked at training or educational opportunities to increase your employability.

Training Advice

Our work skills can need updating for a number of reasons - a lack of experience, moving into another area or even advances in technology that have considerably changed the area you are hoping to work in. 

The DirectGov website, as well as helping you look for a job, also lets you look at the training opportunities available, as well as providing help and advice on looking for work.
