Rinosh Mathew is an internationally trained Planning Engineer and Project Manager who has over 8 years of experience outside of Canada in the construction and energy industry. He arrived to Canada in the summer of 2019 and was eager to connect with other business professionals and peers in Edmonton.
Colin and Ikemefuna's mentor-mentee meetings provided a platform for them to connect over their shared career background, learn more about each other and transfer knowledge.
ERIEC staff were friendly and helpful and gave me the impression that their job was to help me. I was told exactly what steps I would have to take in order to enter the mentorship program and I even received follow-up calls to remind me of deadlines.
I submitted my application and for my luck, I got approved and accepted into the program. From the beginning, I received so many useful tips like online sources, training, advice and additional information for job searching seminars and network events.
My mentor followed a strategic approach towards targeting my job preferences as well as career development.
