See What Past Clients Have to Say About Their Experience!

I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to the World Skills Employment Centre for their incredible support during my job search journey. Their tailored job search training, resume-building workshops, and networking events have significantly improved my employment readiness. The hands-on career advice provided to me by the staff has been invaluable. Furthermore, volunteering in the Centre’s Road to Employment program has given me meaningful experience and further developed my skills. Although I have not secured a position yet, their dedication and encouragement have kept me motivated and hopeful. I look forward to continuing to use their services and am confident I will find a position soon. I highly recommend their services to any newcomer looking to integrate into the Canadian workforce.
