Hi
My 22 y.o son is diagnosed bipolar. He's been doing OK in 2023 - finished a tafe Cert IV and got his drivers licence (both took a couple of years but he got there!)
He wants to work full time (now works p/t in fast food...) and I has applied for lots of jobs via Seek but no luck. He's been let go by a couple of p/t employers in the past so is really underconfident and extremely 'flat'...so not sure how we would go in the competitive job seeking (interviews etc)
Can anyone recommend a job agency that is understanding of mental health issues? There are heaps of agencies working with "disability" but I've heard so many stories of them just doing nothing and shuffling job seekers around to get the government $$ support for their company.
Any positive experiences or recommendations would be greatly appreciated
Many thanks
