Enrica Posted October 5, 2008 Report Share Posted October 5, 2008 There are a few "mature" ladies that have been having issues obtaining employment, which has ben touched upon lightly over the past few weeks, which has been of some concern to me , as I feel that some of the ladies have been feeling that perhaps they lack the confidence to get that job, any job.I had dinner with some friends during the course of the week, and we discussed this topic.One of the ladies had also experienced the same problems , and she kindly gave me the contact details for D.O.M.E (Don’t Overlook Mature Experience) in Perth. The contition is that you have to be over 40 This is a government association which assists mature persons male and female with training whether it be MYOB / Office or whatever and also to write their resumes and best of all its free of charge. All this is to make re-entering or enter the job market easier and apparently they also assist with finding employment.So here the details for the Perth Branch. Just give them a ring and they will give you the details.D.O.M.E. Employment Service2 Delhi streetWest PerthPhone 9420 7233I certainly hope that this can be of some help to someone out there that is feeling that perhaps they are just to old for all of this.RegardsEnricaP.S.
