“I have never seen anyone work harder than a refugee — they know what it’s like to have nothing.” — Andrea Chrysanthou

Andrea came to Canada as a child refugee from Cyprus, navigating a new language and a new country while her parents rebuilt their lives from scratch. That foundation — of hard work, adaptability, and empathy — became the basis of her award-winning career in communications.

Her message to employers is straightforward: “Have patience and you will reap the rewards.”

Newcomer talent is ready to contribute. ACCES Employment works with jobseekers and employers to make those connections happen.

As refugees, you don’t always have a defined path — so you learn to create one.” — Nizar Ladak

Nizar came to Canada in 1973 after his family was expelled from Uganda under the Idi Amin regime. His parents went door to door looking for work to build a future for their children. That experience shaped everything, including a career spent leading innovation in Canada’s health and technology sectors.

His advice to employers? “Hire for attitude and teach the rest. Refugees bring resilience, teamwork, and fresh perspective — and the return on investment is hundredfold.”

ACCES Employment connects employers with skilled newcomers every day. The talent is here.
