An intergenerational mentoring program to help you find a job
News from one of our duos in Lille!
Hello Captains,
Today, we're sharing the story of a fabulous Lille duo, that of Mamadou Chérif and his mentor Eda!
Mamadou Chérif arrived at DUO for a JOB with a dream: to become a fashion designer.
Once on the job market in France, Mamadou Chérif was lost and didn't know how to go about landing a job. Add to that his administrative and housing issues, he needed someone to support him. It was his mentor Eda who was able to guide him through the trials and tribulations he encountered, and comfort him when his motivation left him."It's nice not to feel abandoned in moments of doubt and despair! Eda was able to remobilize me and give me confidence. I had full support and I know I could call her and share my questions."
Thanks to their joint work, Mamadou Chérif landed a 2-year fixed-term contract as a dressmaker at Confectio: his dream job! There, he sews bags and tents and feels fulfilled. He and Eda have created a very close relationship and will continue to see each other regularly.
This beautiful story is an illustration of the power of intergenerational and intercutural mentoring. Your support in multiplying these stories is precious to us, for which, we thank you warmly!
