Another excellent workshop, at the Let’s Get to Work conference. In Paving the Way to Inclusion, Sharon Graham and Maureen McCann, challenged us to Practice purposeful kindness - words of wisdom for everyday living. #lgtw2020

When we lose our employment or face a career change it can feel like a part of us is dying. It can even feel like we’re losing our sense of who we are. Change can be painful and might even feel like failure. Here’s a wise phrase someone once shared with me: Fail Forward. Look for a way to turn your painful circumstances into an opportunity to develop resilience and compassion. Don’t give up, there is always a way forward!

Sometimes newcomers to Canada are concerned about their English skills. Some feel their language skills are not strong enough to be successful in an interview. Inclusive Recruitment manager for RBC, Vivian Li disagrees. Make your human connection with the interviewer your highest priority!

Story-telling is one of the most important job search skills you can learn. Move beyond what you ‘could’ do and learn to describe what you have done. It’s a powerful and encouraging way to write your cover letter and your resume and it makes all the difference when you interview! Come and join us in our next virtual Reboot where you will learn how to tell your story. Open to EARS Participants only.

Job skills training is not just about finding employment. Learning together we discover strengths and we become more confident. It’s an exciting and challenging journey! Call us at 204-338-3899 to discover how we can make your journey a success.
