Mentoring for refugees looking for a training place

Enriching for both sides: As a mentor at JOBLINGE, you support young people with difficult starting conditions in their entry into professional life. The young people benefit from the professional and life experience of their mentors. They appreciate having someone who takes them and their wishes seriously, gives them practical tips, stands by them in the event of difficulties and rejoices with them in their successes. The mentors create perspectives - and in the process broaden their own perspective through encounters with young people from completely different backgrounds and life worlds.

Your Tasks

You will be prepared for your task in a professional training and, after intensive interviews, you will be matched with a mentee. You should plan one to two hours per week for mentoring over a period of about six months. In the beginning, the assignment is usually the most time-consuming. As a mentor, you will not be alone: our staff will be there for you and will hold regular milestone meetings with you and your mentee. Furthermore, mentor get-togethers offer the opportunity to exchange experiences and network with other mentors.

What's needed

Initial work experience, good German language skills and intercultural competencies are an advantage.

Time required
