While I was flicking through the job scroll for linked in jobs, I noticed a return to work job advert. It never occurred to me that there were opportunities to familiarise yourself with the workplace after taking a 2 year career break. Sometimes it’s hard enough getting back into work mode after having a couple of months off let alone 2 years. I think its a brilliant idea. Below are some organisations that offer a return to work programme.
