My co-op placement this summer was by far my favourite career related
experience. I worked at an Employment Ontario Centre as a program facilitator
for a program called Youth Job Connection Summer. During this experience, I
worked closely with 60 high school aged youth in my community facing barriers
to employment and matched them with summer jobs. It was such an amazing and
rewarding experience to see how the participants progressed over the summer,
and to see the impact employment had on their lives.
