  • Migrants have no professional experience in Switzerland, and no Swiss references. The profiles of job seekers are unfulfilled – due to the migration – and the information is difficult to verify.
  • Because of that, candidates are checked by external assessors, a line or HR manager of a company, and also by a mentor for their personal and team competences as well as their professional skills.
  • Thanks to the assessments, personnel managers can better assess the candidates applications to Swiss companies. Thus, the chances for an invitation to an interview increase significantly.
  • The assessments correspond to a high standard and are certified by leading providers with a wide range of professional test methods for psychological assessments.
Projects are ubiquitous in everyday work . A certified training in project management optimizes the qualifications of the candidate and thus increases the chances of employment. The processing of a hands-on project offer opportunities for companies. Together with the competence center Network for Jobs, concrete projects at companies are acquired.
