Prepped provides job seekers with a mentor to connect and interact with
during their job seeking journey. A job seeker can get experienced advice from
someone who has been through many job applications. Mentor support can
be a key ingredient in getting into work.
Through Prepped, professionals have an opportunity to use their skills to give
something back to their communities. It’s rewarding for professionals to use
their skills in a positive social way – helping people is a great way to give back.
Prepped can be used in businesses as an enterprise volunteering platform. It
presents an accessible and measurable way for employees to take time out to
volunteer – a fantastic way for a company to give back to their community.
Volunteering can also be a great way for employees to develop their own skills.
