Job seekers

Employers are looking for people who are ‘work-ready’, people who are reliable and want to build a better life for themselves and their community.

We encourage all Tiwi to come in and talk to us about their ideas and dreams for the future. We work with you to develop a personalised Job Plan and assessed level of capacity, that will put you on a pathway to a job. We will explain what assistance you will receive and what you need to do in order to receive your Centrelink income support payments.

Our CDP Activities are aimed at helping job seekers overcome barriers to work, such as confidence, lack of training or employer biases. We can also link you into professional support such as counselling and other referrals if you need it. We will also help you with your resume, job applications and job interview skills, and help you apply for suitable jobs.

Our staff are sensitive to the individual needs of job seekers, and will take into account any disabilities, injuries or health conditions, or caring/parenting responsibilities.
