Get Involved
What is the commitment?
Each Reboot Plus youth participant meets between four and seven professionals within occupational fields of their interest. We are looking for professionals from a very broad range of occupations who are willing to give 30 – 60 minutes to be interviewed. During these youth led information interviews, professionals share their own career development experiences and provide career insights, a sense of the current labour market, and an idea of the skills, education and experience required.
Prior to the interview, more detailed information about the project and the interview candidate will be shared with you. After the interview, a member of our team will connect to obtain any feedback you have and to request that you complete a very short online survey regarding your experience.
How do I connect?
To date, nearly 300 professionals have offered their time and expertise. Those completing interviews have shared that the experience exceeded their expectations; many share how impressed they are by the youth and their questions and that the experience caused them to review and reflect on their own career paths.
If you have a passion for supporting youth and have 30 – 60 minutes to give, please contact us today!
