The proposal of the National Youth Institute (INJU) is aimed at young people between 16 and 24 years old interested in accessing job opportunities. The objective is to provide them with concrete tools that favor their search and insertion. The courses, which begin on August 10, will last six hours divided into three modules, the president of the entity, Felipe Paullier, explained to the Presidential Communication.
Through the Labor Orientation Workshops, those interested will be able to learn how to prepare their CVs and will have advice on how to search for employment in different ways. In addition, they will be trained to prepare job interviews, including concepts, objectives and body language.
“These are specific tools aimed at young people who, for the most part, are looking for their first job,” said Paullier. The first workshop will begin on Wednesday, August 10, from 2:30 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. at Casa INJU, Avenida 18 de Julio 1865, and groups will join every month. Likewise, it is planned to transmit these instances virtually to reach recipients throughout the country. Interested parties can sign up here
August: Youth Month
The president of the INJU highlighted that on Friday, August 12, within the framework of the commemoration of the International Youth Day, the third edition of the INJU Awards will be held, with the support of the Parliament. In this instance, six outstanding young people in the areas of culture, sports, entrepreneurship, social commitment, science and animal protection will be recognized. “Through these stories, we want to infect other children and society with the value that the youth of Uruguay have,” he said.
On the other hand, he reported that on Saturday, August 27, in commemoration of the Rural Youth Day, a national meeting will be held in the city of Trinidad, with the support of the Ministry of Livestock, Agriculture and Fisheries, the National Institute of Colonization, Mevir and rural youth organizations. “We celebrate the plurality of young people and the value that the country’s rural youth bring,” said Paullier.
