Surviving and Thriving

Resume Guidance

Creating and building your own professional networks is important. Surrounding yourself with other like-minded women can provide you with impactful peer support to help you achieve success. Dress for Success Sydney has an established ‘Job Support Group’ that we invite all of our clients to be a part of.

On the first Monday of the month, from 10.30am till 12pm, the network meetings are designed to bring women together to build relationships in a friendly and engaging way. We provide opportunities to enhance and develop your work and life skills through guest speakers with relevant and interesting topics that can be found on our website.

3. Job Support Group Network

Coaching and mentoring programs help you grow, develop, learn skills and sustain employment with direction and advice from a seasoned HR expert.

We offer our clients that have engaged in our Career Support workshops and are seeking employment with the opportunity to access professional support from one of our trained coaches.

A coaching relationship is typically 3 months in duration or approximately 10 hours. Coaches and clients have the autonomy to structure their relationship including discussion topics and scheduling face to face meetings and telephone support.

Our mentoring program assists clients who have successfully secured a job and requires some additional support to transition into their new employment. The mentoring relationship helps reduce work related anxieties that may be experienced by the client and promote increased job retention. This program is available to any client who has attended a minimum of two workshops. Mentoring relationships can last for up to 6 months.

4. Coaching & Mentoring Program

We facilitate weekly career development and employability skills workshops. These workshops run every Wednesday from 10am-12.30pm and seek to build your capacity to successfully and confidently secure and sustain employment. All our workshops are delivered by friendly industry experts and provide opportunities for questions and group interaction.

For a full list of current topics, please view the back page of this brochure.

Interviews can be intimidating and nerve wrecking, but practice makes perfect! Every Wednesday between 12.30pm to 2pm we conduct mock interviews (practice interviews) and/or resume review sessions hosted by recruitment and HR specialists. These sessions will help you to write and present a winning resume as well as have a higher success rate at interview.

Dress for Success Sydney’s purpose is to improve the employability of women in NSW. We want to support you on your journey to employment by providing you with opportunities to enhance your employability and get that job!

Our services are FREE for you, our client.

We offer an outstanding and comprehensive suite of career services that will support and enhance your ability to enter or re-enter the workforce.

Our Career Support Program seeks to build your confidence so you may realise your full potential and achieve economic independence.
