We’ve started to make “conNEXTions” and have matched these mentees with their mentors! Looking forward to working with these matches to help the mentees achieve their career goals!
We had a blast at our Networking workshop. Did you know that 85% of jobs are NOT posted! In this workshop, mentees learned the importance of networking and was able to craft an elevator pitch!
Our Founder, Saran Ouk, speaking at the Urban League about her career path.
Knowing how to sell ourselves is so important. Whether we are promoting our individual self to employers or our business to our customers, branding is crucial! Thank you to our conNEXTions mentor Chantel Soumis for this amazing and inspiring session!
We had a great session today! Thank you Laurie O’Donnell for facilitating the Myers-Briggs workshop. We learned about the different types of personalities and now have a better understanding of ourselves and others!
