Work Clubs Wakefield

Work Clubs are in place to help share experiences with other people who may be in a similar situation to you. You can get help with job search techniques, interview skills, developing your CV and IT skills.

Work Clubs are open to all benefit recipients although they will primarily be aimed at unemployed jobseekers from Day 1 of their claim until they are referred to the Work Programme.
