WITH almost one in 10 people aged 15 to 24 across NSW without a job, we are spurring Sydney businesses to take on work experience students.
We are hoping the initiative will give young people a valuable insight into working life and practical employment opportunities.
All you need to do is is let us know a little bit about yourself so that employers can see that you are motivated, capable and ready for work experience.
Employers will be able to view your profile to make sure that you are a suitable fit for their business.
With a target of securing 1000 work experience placements across a diverse range of industries in the next 30 days, we are inviting local and national businesses to commit to a number via our online platform. And we are going to track this using an updated tally.
Students can upload their profiles and businesses can register their interest on our I Want 2 Work Experience portal.
