Is your teen looking for their first job? We helped them take a big step.

‍
On June 2, at the Rivière-Rouge Golf Club, 37 young people from the region experienced a memorable evening during our Desjardins Youth at Work launch. For many, it was an evening that transformed a feeling of uncertainty into pride, motivation, and self-confidence.

Guided by our career development advisor, Cinthia Bourgon, these young people were able to:

‍
✔️ Create or update their resume
✔️ Practice introducing themselves and talking about their skills
✔️ Realize that they, too, have something to offer

On site, 17 employers from Vaudreuil-Soulanges were waiting for them. 18 positions are available — and some may have already found their very first First Job.

‍
They leave with more than just employer contacts.

It's often all they need to take the leap and get started.

Thanks to the participating businesses and to the parents who encourage their young people to seize these opportunities. Together, we give them the tools to build a future that's true to themselves.
