What makes EmployAbility Service Louth different is that they try to place the right candidate with the right business. I also like the idea that the Job Coach calls on a regular basis and checks in on progress and performance. By developing this relationship with the candidate he can identify potential issues and resolve them, before it becomes a concern to me. EmployAbility Service Louth provides excellent support and is always at the end of the phone.

Jennifer, Drogheda

Thanks to EmployAbility Service Louth I am now happily placed in a position with a successful multinational. My Disability Officer in DKIT told me about EmployAbility Service Louth. I made contact with them a few weeks before I finished my IT degree. I couldn’t believe the warm, friendly, reception I got from the staff there. Very early in the process my Job Coach suggested that I should consider an Internship. I agreed as I had absolutely no work experience in IT. My Job Coach kept in close contact with me and my employer during the 9 months internship. I’m now working full time in a job I love. I am very grateful for the time and effort EmployAbility Service Louth put into finding me a suitable internship that lead to a job.

Michael, Dundalk

I was diagnosed with MS 4 years ago, slowly but surely I realised I was no longer able to continue working in construction and had to eventually give up my job, this really hit me hard. I knew I was no longer able for full time work due to the fatigue associated with the MS. I went to my local Intreo office for help, they referred me to EmployAbility Service Louth. I have found them to be excellent, from the get go I felt the Job Coach understood my difficulties and concerns; we had regular meetings, during this time we explored various work avenues and my C.V was updated and improved. I also got help with interview preparation. My Job Coach contacted a range of employers on my behalf. Following a short work experience in a local builder’s suppliers store I secured a part time job. The job suits me perfectly. In short, the service I received from EmployAbility Service Louth was exemplary. I can’t recommend them highly enough
