Were you worried before the first interview? Do you remember your first working day? On Friday, September 11, in Melitopol, participants of the Youth Forum #SkillsLab2020 ‘Path to Success’ talked to potential employers, visited successful local businesses and received practical advice on interviews from business owners, management of HR departments, and local Employment Center.

Honesty, willingness to constantly learn, work in a team, openness, friendliness: through the Forum, local active youth understands more clearly what qualities the best applicants must have in order to get the job of their dreams for the first time.

The United Nations Population Fund works with young people from the Luhansk, Donetsk and Zaporizhzhia Oblasts, assisting them to acquire modern knowledge and skills.
