In an ambitious move to enhance employment support, Cardiff Council joined hands with Trinet Technologies to create a mobile solution that simplifies access to career resources for residents. The result? A dynamic and user-friendly app named “Into Work Cardiff” that connects people to job opportunities, skill development programs, and funding options—all in real time.
