Mr. John McKeon:

We ask the staff to do that. It has to be borne in mind that it is an employment advice and counselling service. For example, people receive coaching on how to produce a better curriculum vitae and how to do a better interview and so on. We will send them on short-term training courses and so on. The ingredients in the recipe are the same but it will be tailored depending on the circumstances of the individual.
