Are you a DFN Project SEARCH graduate? Congratulations on completing your supported internship! We hope you’ve enjoyed learning a range of skills, exploring different job roles, and now know what it’s like to be part of an inclusive workplace.
But have you thought about what’s next? We know that finishing your supported internship is a big deal, but your employment journey doesn’t end here. We’ve created the Graduate Network to help you stay connected, discover new opportunities and access support to help you find, and stay in, a job.
I was able to attend Youth Parliament for 2 years in a row. I’ve done so many great things, it’s hard to pick one, but ending with getting a job was the highlight!
