effective telephone techniques to engage with job seekers

Tuesday 21 May 2024

2.00pm AEST (1:30pm SA & NT and 12 noon WA)

PLATFORM: GO TO WEBINAR

TARGET GROUP

Frontline Staff and Reception Staff

SUMMARY

The webinar has been designed to support staff primarily working with job seekers over the telephone. They may be calling to gather information about job placements or to arrange case management appointments; they may be providing Post Placement Support or chasing up job seekers who have missed appointments; and of course, it is easier for a job seeker not to cooperate with your staff over the phone than it is in person.

Listen to Linda Pierson’s  upbeat and positive approach for staying on topic and getting what you require. Linda will discuss how you can de-escalate difficult conversations in real time and how to increase job seekers’ co-operation while remaining calm.

The webinar will provide attendees with practical ideas to build their confidence and skills and to improve their success rates.

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT

  • Preparing the call ahead of time to assure the clarity of your message
  • Stress management techniques for centralised contact systems staff
  • De-escalating conversations with angry/agitated/confused job seekers
  • Techniques for sourcing the information from job seekers that providers need
  • After the horse has bolted – engaging and supporting job seekers who independently find work
