Summer Jobs through Nordic Cooperation

Summer Jobs through Nordic Co-operation

Nordjobb is an organisation that is set up to create job opportunities for young persons in another Nordic country. Due to Covid-19, limited mobility across the country borders made it difficult for the companies involved to find work force through this platform. At our college there were many students who could not travel home during their holiday and were in need for a summer job. Through a new co-operation with Nordjobb, we managed to find a job for 13 of them in the tourism sector in Geiranger, most of them at Hotel Havila. A rewarding experience and a taste of warm and long summer days in Norway. Here is the description Wilhem Hector gave towards the end of their stay: My friends and I are growing professionally. The exposure to the labour world that these summer jobs offer, is helping us become more respectful, disciplined and skillful. As a maintenance assistant, I am gaining valuable skills in plumbing, electricity, waste management, gardening and more. My friends are working and learning in other areas of interest. It is so beautiful to see!
