Engage Employers and Open Doors for Job Seekers with Barriers

Are you struggling to find employers willing to hire your clients with barriers?

Traditional job readiness programs often lean on resumes and interviews, leaving job seekers with barriers shut out of opportunities. As a Job Developer, your role isn’t about sending resumes and hoping for the best - it’s about building trust with employers, understanding their needs, overcoming objections, and introducing them to a non-traditional labour pool.

​

While Employment Counsellors help clients become motivated, reliable, and dependable (MRD) employees, Job Developers focus on influencing employers to see the value in your service and the potential in job seekers with barriers—and to say yes.
