PHILLIPE MICHAEL
DINGLEY VILLAGE
ADVENTURE GOLF
EXCITING CAREER IN
INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY
Stuart was looking for a little help keeping the
amazing equipment at Dingley Village Adventure
Golf in top condition, so we introduced Stuart to
DVJS client Phillipe and together we’ve all hit an ace.
Stuart feels Phillipe has not only become a valuable
asset to the team, but someone the entire team can
count on no matter the task - even when Bertha the
Water Wheel plays up.
So you can be sure staff like Phillipe will be working
hard so your friends and family have a great time
whenever you visit.
Michael graduated with an IT degree 3 years ago
having a distinction average. He is a very intelligent,
genuine young man. It has taken him up until recently
to commence employment in his chosen career field.
By co-incidence he also obtained his driver’s licence.
A great achievement for someone never prepared to
give up despite so many disappointments.
Michael regularly obtained job interviews but
his biggest barrier was to convince prospective
employers that he was the right person for the job.
DVJS assisted Michael with interview preparation
including mock interviews, developed his resume
to a professional standard, drafted cover letters and
had an open dialogue with his referees.
While it was deflating for Michael to receive so
many “no’s” he was constantly reminded that he only
needed one “YES”! He now feels “on top of the world
and can “hold his head up high” in social situations.
He is a perfect example of determination and not
giving up. Well done!
JOSHUA RAELENE
AG BAKEHOUSE
DANDENONG
Joshua is a young man looking at creating something
positive this early in his life. He was open to any type
of work prior to commencing a job at AG Bakehouse
as a Food Processing Assistant. He started work in
August 2016. Part of his job is packing and labelling of
bread, mixing flour and general cleaning. Someday, he
wants to become a baker and he is preparing for that
day to come.
The owners of AG Bakehouse, Andreas and Gabriella
Sitnikow, are very supportive of Joshua. They found
out about his work ethic right away as he walks to work
every time and arrives at the bakehouse 15 minutes
prior to his shift. Joshua’s workmates also see in him
a young lad quite focussed on the things he does and
does them well! Even Joshua’s support person, Denise
Taylor, was impressed on the day of the handover how
punctual and courteous Joshua he is.
Joshua comes from a very supportive family, and his
mum, Simone, sometimes comes to our appointment.
As a form of gratitude – and to our surprise – Simone
sent a bouquet of flowers to the Dandenong Team for
helping his son secure a job.
SALTS OF THE EARTH

DVJS partner.
Salt therapy gets rave reviews from people in all walks
of life with a mind for health, relaxation and new
experiences, and it’s this mindset as a company that
led Salts to hire DVJS client Raelene, who has had
such success that she’s now full time at their brand
new Narre Warren clinic.
Salts of the Earth want to help people live, sleep and
breathe better - and in providing opportunity for people
like Raelene, they’re definitely making lives better.

hit.
