Looking for employment / volunteering?

   


TAKE A CHANCE ON ME is a social enterprise which works to find employers the right candidates for interviews for employment and volunteering positions. Our service is free of charge.

Our social aim is to help inspire the furthest from employment or looking to change positions into taking that step by providing a range of initiatives. We work with businesses that are looking for employees and volunteers to help reduce their recruitment costs by providing suitable candidates for interviews.


OUR AIM

Is to be the go-to organisation for employers looking to recruit employees and volunteers who are struggling to find or change employment for what ever reason.

We will only ever put forward candidates who we feel are suitable for relevant positions. We want to work with businesses to help them source great quality candidates for interviews and help them to help people change their lives for the better.

What We Do

Our service is Free of Charge.

WHY WE DO IT

Established in 2017 and formerly named Mandalay Wellbeing CIC we have vast experience working with people going through challenging times (History) We set up a Food Bank during Covid, distributing over 52,000 food parcels to those in need of support. It became clear to us that there are many good people who are just ‘stuck in a rut’ and genuinely want to work but just don’t get the opportunity of attending relevant interviews. We want to help them achieve their goals.

Many of our volunteers are former employers and understand the employers challenge and frustration of receiving 20,30,40 + CVs for positions from people they probably have no idea about. We will do our best to ensure any candidate we put forward is suitable for interview.

We have open and honest conversations with employers and employees to minimise the risk for both parties.. and it works!

Employee Testimonial

I was given the opportunity to do some volunteering, which I really enjoyed, after about a month and with some employment guidance from TAKE A CHANCE ON ME I have now been able to secure paid employment which fits around my needs.

Employer Testimonial

We contacted TACOM for a front of house position at our hotel. We interviewed a lady they put forward that afternoon, she started work the following week. It was a very easy and effective way of sourcing an employee.

Employee Testimonial

Being on job hunt for over a year and hearing nothing back is a little confidence knocking. But I get the call that night, not expecting it at all, saying “Congratulations! You’ve got the job!!” OMG I nearly cried. I screamed I was so happy. Big Thankyou to Trevor for believing in me, and helping me achieve this job that I absolutely love!
