The Australian Way Project helps migrants and refugees enter the workforce

Following the helping hand of some government funding, the business advisory firm Our HR Company has recently released their latest platform focused on aiding the refugees and migrants of Australia in finding local work.

Our HR Company launched a trial of the new service, called The Australian Way Project, at an event in Melbourne on Thursday (21 March), which was attended by Victorian senator Jane Hume.

The service incorporates an app that assists users with the job-seeking process, including preparing resumes, completing job applications and linking to other job-seeking support services and English languages courses.

Information will be presented in English with translations available into four key languages: Arabic, Assyrian neo Aramaic, Dari and Chin Hakha.

In a press statement, Senator Hume said that the service initially aims to assist 500 new arrivals to NSW and Victoria secure employment, running through to July 2020.

“The Australian Way Project will help a cohort of 500 new arrivals and refugees feel even more welcome in this great country of ours through access to an innovative, engaging digital platform to accelerate their potential employment success,” she said.
