Goldcrest House in East Yorkshire are celebrating a joyous moment – the job offer and subsequent employment success of service user Dawn Field.
Dawn responded to an advertised post for kitchen support in the Goole Pastures Day Centre in Goole and successfully satisfied the interviewees that she was the ideal candidate for the very busy kitchen environment.
Dawn Field: “I am very excited about my new job”
Helen Clarke, Team Leader at The Pastures Day Service, says: “Dawn started with a great attitude, ready to take on any challenge. Since the first day she has built up a good relationship with her work mates and settled in as part of the team. She is very much a welcome addition to our team.”
Dawn Field says: “I am very excited about my new job as I like to meet new people. I am looking forward to starting as I got on really well with staff during my induction”.
