Changing Australia: How to get more migrants and refugees in the jobs they are qualified for
Manage episode 494875507 series 5428
It's not uncommon to hop in a cab and start chatting to the driver — and before you know it you realise that the person you're talking to is an experienced engineer, corporate manager, or surgeon.
Migrants, refugees and asylum seekers bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to Australia but many struggle to find work in their field of expertise or at their qualification level.
This is despite Australia facing a skills shortage across many industries. So how can this be turned around while making sure that quality and safety are at the forefront?
Guests:
- Violet Roumeliotis, CEO of Settment ServIces International (SSI)
- Chantal Mousad, board member of Career Seekers
