MBO Career Coach: supporting 45 higher education students with their graduation and an internship | closed

We want to start a new project: 'Networking for Work'. Many of our young people indicate that they do not know how to find work for advice, an internship or a (side) job. They often have little or no network from home.  

We would like to train young people in networking (what is a network, how can this help you, what is your network, how do you expand it and use it?) and then have them apply what they have learned in a networking breakfast with representatives of the Rotterdam business community. With the goal of securing a (side) job or internship.  

We propose a pilot project: In this pilot 50-60 young people follow the training networking for work; they then get the chance in a networking lunch with Rotterdam businesses to get a (side) job or internship. Our goal is that 80% of the young people are successful and have found an internship, side job or job at the end of this program. After evaluation we will scale up this program.  

Project description

50-60 young people learn to network for a job!
JINC is an association of companies that work together to give young people a good start on the labor market. Especially young people who grow up in neighborhoods with socio-economic disadvantage (poverty). In these neighborhoods we see an unemployment rate 2-3 times higher than in other neighborhoods in Rotterdam. While many companies are desperate for personnel.  

Together with companies we organize short, impactful projects for these young people in the field of career orientation and employee skills - on location in companies and by business people at school. Our projects are part of the curriculum at school. We pay extra attention to high employment sectors such as Engineering/Port, Construction, Healthcare and Food and contribute to the NPRZ's Career Start Guarantee program. We reach more than 15,000 young people in Rotterdam annually in cooperation with 550 companies and 143 schools.
