Kick Start Your Career By Connecting Online With Employers You Want To Work For

GLOUCESTER, U.K. - May 2, 2013 - PRLog -- “There is very little knowledge available for the new workforce regarding the breadth of career choice available. We encourage young people to create their own requests for work experiences and training opportunities that they would like. Interested organisations can respond directly to these requests and safe working relationships can develop from there.” Explains Chris Davis, the networks founder.

Based on the individual’s requests, needs, ambitions and interests the career development network connects people to relevant organisations, training, opportunities, information, groups and experts.

“Enabling young people to share their interests, experiences, needs and career goals with potential employees helps create new opportunities. Connecting young people to employers from different sectors increases their knowledge of the industry and helps them develop their own personal career choices. “

Young people have access through the network to training, mentoring, work experience, apprentices and internships. Members expand their career opportunities by connecting with potential employers and finding out more about unique careers in different industries, sector and locations.  

Additional career support comes from independent mentors, peers, professionals and role models all with the interest, experience and means to provide assistance to help young people expand their career opportunities and long term prospects. Interaction with experts and consultants can give young people a career kick start by providing them with valuable feedback on the required skill sets needed for certain jobs.

The Career Development Network allows members to track specific industries, experts and monitor this activity online. This enables young people to gain a better understanding of the industries they intend to work in as well as following the current industry trends.

Relationships with mentors and industry experts can be very valuable for interns when deciding what career path to take. Information and support from the right people helps improve long term wage prospects by developing and understanding what skills sets pays more in the market.  

Anyone planning a career change or thinking about their career path is invited to get involved by joining the network online at http://career.addmysupport.com or contacting careers@addmysupport.com for more information
