Angela Innes says a simple chat with a careers adviser changed the course of her employment.
Scottish Careers Week, which runs from November 11 to 15, is a national campaign that shines a light on the life-changing support offered by Scotland’s career services.
The couple started a family but, as her maternity leave was about to end in 2022, Angela realised she couldn’t manage the daily commute to her high school in Dumbarton. Angela searched online, found information about the careers services from SDS and got in touch with the centre in Ayr, where she was put through to careers adviser Heather Cipa.Angela said: “I was invited to come in and have a chat with Heather, who encouraged me to bring my baby daughter with me. The support was really personal and accessible and Heather has a great personality, so we got on really well.
“I asked Angela about the possibility of becoming a guidance teacher and we looked at what experience and skills would be needed to do that.” Angela’s passion for the job shone through and she was offered a full-time position at the department, where she helps neurodiverse people access education or prepare for the world of work.
