Welcome to the jungle of a thousand possibilities. After school, the world is open to you, but what should your future look like? The Berufswahlpass NRW helps you with your questions and supports you on your way into working life. You can find out more about applying for jobs, get tips for job interviews, learn more about internships, apprenticeships and studies, and learn how to analyse your strengths.
Many things can be done most quickly online: That's why the Federal Employment Agency has digital services. There you can find information on job exchanges, post a job application yourself or find out more about choosing a profession or course of study. Support options during training are also listed here, for example, when it comes to vocational training allowance.
Whether you are applying for a job, going to an interview or taking a recruitment test, the Federal Employment Agency can help you with your application. At the BA Training Centre, the Rheine Employment Agency gives you the opportunity to register for services such as career guidance, online seminars and application assistance.
In the training placement service, the staff of the Warendorf District Job Centre support young people on their way to training. With professional assistance, they thus facilitate the transition from school to work. The Youth Employment Agency advises and helps young people in the "jungle of authorities" and, in cooperation with the Federal Employment Agency and the youth welfare offices, supports them in finding the right contact persons.
The chances of getting an in-company training place are low for many young people with disabilities. This is not only due to the demands of the training market, but often also to the scepticism of many entrepreneurs: they fear performance deficits and additional work. But they are wrong: with professional support, young people with disabilities can successfully complete an apprenticeship.
More information is available in the brochure of the NRW Ministry of Labour.
