Unemployed and worried that companies won’t hire you? This programme will help you
I have a friend who’s been out of job for nearly a year. She recently shared with me that she’s feeling increasingly anxious about being hired because the longer she stays unemployed, the less likely potential companies would want to employ her.
While her concern isn’t unfounded, there’s actually a government programme that specifically helps people who have been unemployed and actively looking for jobs for six months or more.
Administered by Workforce Singapore (WSG), Career Support Programme (CSP) is a salary support programme that helps fund a large part of an employee’s pay if he/she is qualified.
Sounds a bit too good to be true? It’s real.
But of course, there are criteria both the employee and employer have to meet in order to qualify.
Read on to find out how Jo Jit (JJ) managed to find a stable job again after being unemployed for a long while.
Leaving his previous job
Previously an IT Consultant at a startup, JJ reveals that he decided to leave due to disagreements with his employers. The 39-year-old explains, “I didn’t agree with the new direction the company was moving towards. Moreover, I wanted to use the time to complete a novel I was writing.”
