Teenagers design youth employment website

A youth employment website designed by teenagers to help their peers find work and build their own business has been launched.

The new workwonders.ie site, devised by Cork City Comhairle na nÓg (Youth Council), provides a one-stop-shop for young job seekers. It has gathered the most relevant advice, tips and support in one place and presents it to young people from their own perspective.

It features sections on work and career preparation, advice on finding jobs, information on the range of supports for entrepreneurs as well as a user forum.
