Employment Services

US’s employment program is designed to support newcomer’s women’s, refugees, and non-refugees status in resume writing, interview skills, networking strategies and connect them with employers.

We assist clients to understand their skills and limitations. We will also organize a workshop on resume writing, cover letter, and mock interview. UC will help its client in job applications and development and are referred to other organizations for further assistance with their job search. 

Our client’s initial needs assessment determines if they are ready to search for a job.  If our client is not ready, we will assist them to better understand their job search barriers and determine the best possible solution.  One-on-one and group sessions assist clients to better understand Canadian companies, employer perspectives, and networking strategies to connect with others. UC helps clients gain support and guidance in finding employment that matches their skills and education and assistance in overcoming barriers to employment
