Transcript: Hear what students and graduates have to say about their experience at IAAC!

[Kendra] Hi, I'm Kendra Jordan.

[Julia] My name is Julia Pilon.

[JR] My name is Jean-Ridel Basigura

[Sonny] Hello, my name is Sonny Amos-Lefebvre. I am a financial analyst for the Agency's internal budgets. 

[Kendra] I'm a human resources advisor

[Julia] I am an FSWEP student.

[JR] I support the Quebec regional office team.

[Kendra] Since my arrival, I have been so happy to say that I have seen some promotions and some career changes.

[Sonny] As soon as I arrived, I had a mentor who was with me every step of the way. This person really helped me answer the thousands of questions I had.

[JR] The fact that we're a small agency, I've received a lot of advice that has helped me throughout my career, even to this day.

[Julia] Nearly everyone that I have met feels that their work is purposeful, and it seems to motivate them to want to contribute generously.

[JR] I was surprised to meet intelligent people, passionate about their work and their duty to serve Canadians.

[Kendra] You know, as a student, we get to have all these opportunities to meet a lot of colleagues, and they want to mentor you. You get a lot of opportunities to get some informal coaching from many different people.

[Sonny] When you apply at the federal government, well, you spend time mopping and sweeping. But it's really not that because clearly the goal of the programme is to gain experience in your field. 

[Julia] I bring my queer and disabled identities to work with me every day, they aren't things that I store in a backpack until I'm off work. And having people in my circle who understand my perspective without me having to explain it makes me feel really supported.

[Sonny] Also for me it was the flexibility of the schedule.

[Kendra] My three pieces of advice are to stay open-minded and don't forget to put yourself out there. Discover what you love, it will definitely motivate you in your work, and finally start creating healthy habits early when it comes to your work-life balance.
