International Women’s Day celebrates women’s achievements and reflects on their challenges. This year’s theme is #ChooseToChallenge and this inspired us to showcase amazing women from our program who are mentors and alumni. They all immigrated to Canada themselves and have found success in their careers.

In this video, you will learn about:

• Their successes and achievements

• Barriers they faced and successful strategies used to overcome them
• Tips on job searching during COVID
