Staff from the Scheme also highlight the aims, benefits and successes of the Scheme for both employers and jobseekers. A selection of young people who participated in the DfC JobStart Specialist Pathway for 16-24 year olds and which have retained employment in DfC as a result of their participation on the Scheme also share their experiences.

Watch employers and young people currently participating on the scheme as they speak about their experience of JobStart.
