For a more inclusive labour market
We create meetings between foreign-born people who have difficulty finding their place in the labour market and experienced colleagues in the same industry.
Yrkesdörren is non-profit and the service is free.
Watch the interview with the Door Opener Ola and the Participant Tasnim, who shares their experience of the meeting through Yrkesdörren.
Why Yrkesdörren?
The path into the Swedish labor market is sometimes unnecessarily difficult. In a labor market where every other company recruits via contacts, a professional network is often crucial. It creates a gap between established and foreign-born Swedes
Yrkesdörren is an integration initiative that aims to bridge that gap through meetings and speed up the path of foreign-born people into the Swedish labour market. These meetings contribute to a mutual exchange of knowledge and experience that broadens networks. For the non-established, a meeting is also an opportunity to learn more about social codes, see their opportunities and increase their self-confidence in the labour market. Our vision is a labour market where people with different backgrounds and experiences find their right place.
