Carla found work in Canada through our Employment Services
Arriving in Canada as a refugee from Mexico, Carla faced many barriers. But her biggest challenge was finding work in her new country, especially during COVID-19. Our Employment Services' programs support people just like her.
Newcomers who are receiving social assistance gain the knowledge and training they need for their first job in Canada. For Carla, she not only improved her ability to find work, she learned about work/life balance, communication techniques and emotional intelligence. Together with the ongoing support of staff, her degree in nutrition and Personal Training Certificate, enabled her to find her dream job.
“As a newcomer to Canada it was very helpful to learn the things I did at TNGCS, like how to improve my resume and prepare for a job interview. I practiced my PowerPoint and public speaking skills. Everything I learned taught me about the Canadian workforce. It helped me get a job at Goodlife Fitness as a personal trainer, which I love. I’m very thankful to TNGCS for that!”
