Helen Murphy Creative Solutions work with many diverse groups to help them through the process and preparation  of applying for jobs and working in new employment positions, internships and work placements. Our mantra is 'Stand out for all the right reasons'.

Whether they are 2nd or 3rd level students, graduates, interns, newly employed, self employed or long term unemployed, our clients are given a new set of skills that will help them in their work environment. The importance of generic business skills and customer service skills cannot be underestimated in today's work place. We at Creative Solutions work with our clients on a group or one to one basis, with very interactive workshops and seminars to help them hone their existing employability skills and give them some new ones to help them advance or restart their careers.

Using our experience in HR we work with groups to help them through the job of Career Planning - 'it is a job to find a job'. We give guidance in how to write the CV and cover letter that best reflects them, their personality and their skills. We guide them through the minefield that is job interviews by preparing them for and practicing mock interviews.We advise on the benefits of networking and being pro-active in job searching. 

Working with those eager to start their own business we concentrate on their People, Personal Development and Intelligence Skills to remind them of their strengths and where they may have improve. We focus on the importance of effective listening and communication which is vital in excellent Customer Service. For start-up businesses we take the myth out of P.R. and Marketing and show them how they can do a lot of this themselves, writing press releases, brochures, web content, etc. We also emphasise the importance of networking using person to person contact as well as social media.

The tailor-made workshops are delivered in a fun but informative way that allows delegates to get involved and gain the confidence to speak in front of others, revisit their transferable skills and improve their self confidence.
