#08 - Jobs 4 Refugees - Connecting People to a New Labor Market

Finding a job is hard even if you speak the language, know how to write the perfect cover letter, craft just the right CV, and give all the right answers in an interview. Imagine having to learn to do all of that in a completely new country. Where do you even start? Jobs 4 Refugees , helps newcomers with that start. In Germany, those who are seeking safety and stability often look for a job as a means to gain experience in their new home and provide security for themselves and their families. Listen to today's episode to hear Julia, a client of Jobs 4 Refugees, share her experience working with the organization, and attending its workshops. Then Friederike Löwe, Integration Coordinator, tells us about Jobs 4 Refugees' history and how they have addressed the unique challenges of helping newcomers find a job in a new home. We also address how the COVID-19 pandemic has affected refugees' ability to work and find work. Thank you, Friederike and Julia, for coming on the podcast and sharing your experiences.
