This past Friday, at the “La Estación” Coworking facilities, the first meeting of the theoretical-practical cycle “Promotion of Employability” was held, organized by the Directorate of Innovation and Knowledge Economy, under the Special Unit for Strategic Projects of the Municipality of Concordia, in collaboration with private consulting firms and Human Resources professionals from the city.
The objective of this cycle is to strengthen the professional tools and competencies of young people from Concordia, providing them with greater possibilities for success in their job search. This first workshop focused on fundamental aspects such as creating an effective CV, optimizing a LinkedIn profile, techniques for job interviews, and an interview simulation activity, where participants were able to exchange roles and practice in a realistic environment.
During the event, participants also had the opportunity to listen to Iván Arriola and Nicolás Sáenz, members of the Knowledge Economy Advisory Council, who shared their experiences hiring local talent. Both agreed that, increasingly, profiles certified through municipal programs stand out in the technology market.
With significant participation, the enthusiasm of the attendees was notable. More than twenty young people from different neighborhoods of the city expressed their gratitude for the training opportunities that the municipality has been managing, highlighting their value in professional development.
“It is key to continue betting on the training of our young people. These types of initiatives mark a turning point in their preparation for the labor market, and the municipality must function as a facilitating tool that allows for these types of opportunities,” stated the Undersecretary of the Special Unit for Strategic Projects, Licentiate Leandro Garbarino, who attended the event and remarked on the importance of public-private synergy to boost the economic and social growth of Concordia.
The Director of Innovation and Knowledge Economy, Licentiate Pedro Kohn, for his part, celebrated this alliance and stated that “with this beginning, we are sure that we can go very far and achieve great things,” alluding to the characteristics of this first meeting.
The participating consulting firms agreed that this alliance will mark a milestone in the generation of local employment. “We are convinced that this cycle will be a pillar in the development of human capital in Concordia, facilitating access to new job opportunities and improving the competitiveness of our young people in the market,” the Human Resources professionals stressed.
This workshop is only the beginning of a cycle that will continue with new editions, always with the focus placed on providing practical tools so that young people can stand out and access a more promising professional future.
