Our Pathways Programme offers a free employment service for A2Dominion customers aged 16 and over. We provide one-on-one support to individuals early in their careers or facing challenges re-entering the workforce.

She worked with Yasmeen Ali, Employment Advisor, to identify the support she needed and explore apprenticeships matching her interests and skills.

Yasmeen helped to refine Fatimah's CV and coached her on effectively showcasing her skills and experiences to potential employers. She also helped with mock interviews and preparing for tough questions.

In Fatimah's words, "Yasmeen's encouragement and positive reinforcement played a pivotal role in boosting my confidence. Her unwavering belief in my potential kept me motivated and persistent.

"I am incredibly grateful for Yasmeen’s support and guidance. Her personalised approach, expert advice, and unwavering belief in my abilities were instrumental in helping me secure an apprenticeship. She not only helped me find a job but also helped me grow as an individual. I am excited to embark on this new chapter thanks to the invaluable support I received.”
