Recruitment Day<\/strong> – 12 November 2024<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Recruitment day is an employment initiative<\/strong> created through a partnership between Burger King, Quick and UNHCR with the collaboration of be.brussels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is part of a broader effort to help refugees build new lives <\/strong>in Belgium by offering them a pathway into the workforce. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By partnering with large companies, we seek to provide refugees holding a basic level of language proficiency with job opportunities<\/em>, which is key to their social and economic integration<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The project focuses on creating stable, long-term employment <\/strong>opportunities<\/em><\/strong> <\/em>for refugees, who often face challenges when entering the workforce, including limited access to job opportunities, language barriers, and a lack of local experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
