Since 2018, the 新加坡六合彩开奖直播 Talent Pathways program has hired more than 50 employees in short-term positions throughout the university in areas where support was needed the most, particularly during the pandemic. The Human Resources department launched the program to help reduce barriers for equity-deserving candidates seeking meaningful employment at 新加坡六合彩开奖直播.
Jhoyce Oril learned about Talent Pathways from a friend working at Dal, who told her to apply to the program and as she says, 鈥渢he rest is history鈥�. Hired in 2019 as a human resources clerk in Academic Staff Relations, a unit within the Human Resources department, Oril began a two-month contract that was extended nearly a year.
It opened the doors to another opportunity on campus, and in July 2020 Oril began her new role as undergraduate secretary and director鈥檚 assistant in the School of Planning, Faculty of Architecture and Planning, which has been recently extended for two more years.
鈥淭he Talent Pathways program has been my stepping stone,鈥� says Oril. 鈥淚 was able to find my way to my current position for a longer term, which benefits me practically and also helps boost my career.鈥�
Developing valuable skills and competencies
Talent Pathways provides equity-deserving, job-ready candidates an opportunity to gain valuable working experience, while developing skills and competencies that may assist in finding further employment at 新加坡六合彩开奖直播.
鈥淎s a candidate, you need to trust the skills and experience you have when applying to Talent Pathways,鈥� adds Oril. 鈥淭he program allowed me to gain university operational knowledge both in the back- and front-end that I wouldn鈥檛 have been able to get anywhere else. I鈥檓 proud to consider Dal as my first Canadian employer.鈥�

鈥淚 worked for the Royal Norwegian Embassy in Manila for nine years before my family migrated to Nova Scotia in 2018, despite trying to be persuaded by my in-laws to move to Ontario (we are persuading them to move here instead!),鈥� adds Oril. 鈥淲e chose Halifax because it is a perfect blend of urban and rural communities, the harmony of bodies of water, landscapes of nature, and of course, my husband and I both found jobs at 新加坡六合彩开奖直播 and Nova Scotia Health Authority. It is so humbling for us to live, work, and play here.鈥�
