National Careers Week, pt.1 - My Life Now, from cancer to career, and employment tips
Show Notes

As National Careers Week approaches, young people and professionals will be sharing their experience and insight about overcoming barriers to employment following cancer at a young age.

James and Krissi were supported by the Trust before becoming volunteers and joining the Trust's Youth Board. They have both featured in the Trust’s My Life Now series, which checks back in with young people to see where life has taken them. 

They talk about going from where they were to where they are now in their education and employment, and offer insight into what helped them along the way, as well as some insider knowledge about what employers are looking for.

Part 2 will be released next week, featuring professional Careers Consultant and Trustee Emma Francis offering further insight and advice.
