What our job seekers say
I was surprised by the speed. I came into echo with no idea of where I was going or what I wanted to do, and they focused me. They refined this muddled idea of what I wanted out of work, and in record time had two interviews lined up in niche and interesting fields
JackI believed that because of my age and certain disabilities/limitations, I felt very useless and unemployable. Having to rely on Centrelink payments is very restrictive on your life but since commencing employment with the help of echo, I actually have a reason to get out of bed
CatherineWhen I first joined echo I expected them to be ‘you have to do this, you have to do that’, but my consultants have never put pressure on me. I have felt personally cared for. My personal circumstances were always taken into consideration
