 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I went to this centre because I have been referred for a CV Writing appointment by the Job Shop service at a local library. The staff who referred me said " they will do the CV for you " but honestly, I did not expect to get a slice of cake that easily. I was more hoping to get further guidance to how I could prepare a good CV and also how to equip myself to look for jobs. And Alhamdulillah for the opportunity to speak to Mr Ebrahim, who is very professional and kind giving useful advices and tips in cv writing and job seeking in general. I feel empowered.

I could see how the centre run by the staffs and volunteers are very important in the community. I was introduced to few other volunteers who were at that time busy helping out the people who came to the centre with various reasons.

The venue itself is bright, clean and have comfortable seatings as customers/ service users wait for their turn.
