You MUST listen to this episode as Yvonne is truly making a difference in the world and you will definitely be inspired. After growing up in Ireland, Yvonne headed to Australia after uni, with a group of friends, and while she was here, she started using her HR qualifications and got a job in a big recruitment firm. Other than a wanderlust that has her travelling for decent holiday trips every year or so, she has stayed here ever since....although it was an 18-month stint back in Ireland that really gave her the idea for Glow Up Careers. As a highly paid executive, and her husband is also highly qualified, they couldn't get work when they went back to Ireland, due to the GFC. But it got them thinking - if they couldn't get work, how much harder must it be for refugees and asylum seekers when they come to Australia? So they came back to Oz and started working with refugees and migrants on the side, whilst also running their business coaching and recruitment business. These days it is their sole focus.
Glow Up Careers has a pool of over 200 coaches who are able to help people with how to navigate job seeking here - what HR companies and employers are looking for, how to get picked up by the 'algorithms', and how to build a career strategy. yvonne now speaks all over Australia, and around the world, about the deep pool of talent that is almost ignored by most businesses. One not to miss!
