Who is it for?
• It’s for the employer and the jobseeker.
• The employer has the opportunity to “virtually meet” the jobseeker by viewing the video and will gain very important information about resources.
• The jobseeker has the opportunity to convey all their qualities through text and video footage in a very clear and attractive format.
The information about resources such as reasonable adjustments will enable the employer to recruit disabled people without extra costs.
A visual presentation of the jobseeker helps to dispel preconceptions and stereotypical attitudes. Click here to view a sample video.
