1 Overview
Our Careers Team can provide free information, advice and guidance if you:
- live in West Sussex
- are aged 16-24 and are not in employment, education or training (over 16 hours a week)
- are not receiving support already from a Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) work coach

We can help you to:

- develop a plan to help you achieve your goals and keep on track with that plan
- create a CV, practice interviews, search for jobs and complete job or benefit applications
- speak on your behalf by being an advocate, if appropriate
