This is how Sanna got started looking for work when she lost her job
Sanna* had been working as a store manager for a few years when her employment ended following change negotiations. It had been a while since Sanna had last looked for a job, so her first few days were filled with uncertainty. Where should she start looking for a new job, and what should she do first?
When submitting her application for unemployment benefits, Sanna realized that as a member of YTK, she could get help with her job search. She started by searching for suitable jobs directly on Spark. The aptitude tests and work personality assessments available on the service helped her understand and articulate her strengths for her resume and job application. She also used ready-made examples and templates to create them.
With Spark’s help, Sanna gained more confidence and a clear direction for finding a new job, and the job search no longer felt confusing or random.
