“When you’re unemployed and seeking
work for a long period of time and not
even getting to the interview stage, it
can have a really negative effect on your
confidence. However with JobsFest, the
training sessions were really focused with
groups of people in the same situation
as me talking to each other as much as
possible. It’s really made a difference
and helped to restore my confidence.”
