👻 Scary Career Mistakes to Avoid!

Not all ghosts are spooky… some are the career mistakes that come back to haunt your progress!

Here are a few to watch out for:
💀 Ignoring networking opportunities
🕸️ Sending the same CV for every job
🧛‍♀️ Avoiding feedback instead of learning from it
🪞 Staying in your comfort zone too long

The good news? You can overcome them all with guidance, practice, and a little courage. 💪

Coaching helps you spot these “career scares” early — and turn them into growth opportunities.

💡Did You Know?

With the right support, this timeline can be shortened dramatically. At RJS, we empower refugees to rebuild their careers, gain confidence and achieve professional success faster.

💬 September was a month of learning and growth at Refugee JumpStart Coaching!

We hosted two powerful workshops designed to help our clients strengthen their professional and communication skills:

“Communicate with Confidence” — facilitated by our coach Silvia Risetti Alcock, focused on helping participants express themselves effectively and build confidence in professional settings.

“LinkedIn Basics” — led by our coach and board member Bee Jeriozska together with our intern Solange, guided clients through building strong LinkedIn profiles and using the platform to network and explore career opportunities.

A huge thank you to our dedicated facilitators for their time, expertise and commitment to empowering refugees on their professional journeys!
