Dream job at Cornwall Council with support from the Yep! Project!

This was a significant milestone for Annika, marking the beginning of her career in administration!

Annika came on to the Yep! Project in April 24, with the thoughts of a career within admin. She had taken part in many government funded programmes over the years, without success, but this time she was determined to find a fulltime paid position this time.

She did! After a few unsuccessful interviews and a false start at a school catering company, Annika applied and offered a job as a Business Admin Assistant at Cornwall Council.

The role at the Council was exactly what she had been striving for—a chance to utilise her skills and knowledge in a full-time capacity. Annika was eager to learn and grow, and she was grateful for the support and guidance she received from the Yep! Project.

As she starts her new job, Annika will reflect on her journey and will realise that every experience, even those that seemed like setbacks, has contributed to her personal and professional growth. Her story, I hope, will become an inspiration for others in the program, proving that with determination and the right support, achieving one's career goals is possible.

The Yep! Project will celebrate Annika's success as a testament to the impact of their work in empowering individuals to pursue meaningful employment. Annika's story will become a beacon of hope, encouraging others to persist through challenges and seize every opportunity that comes their way.
