5 challenges you may face as a refugee in Norway: • The overwhelming pressure to speak #Norwegian before you can even think about contributing to society. It can be isolating and discouraging, and feel like a lot of pressure. • Being put into the same box, labeled as a refugee, assuming all refugees are the same! It might feel as though your individuality is being taken away. You’re not just a “#refugee”; you have a story and a uniqueness that matters! • Getting pushed into low-skill jobs despite having years of experience and qualifications. It’s frustrating to feel like your hard work doesn’t count here. • Struggling to find resources because they often aren’t available in multiple languages. It shouldn’t be that hard to get the support you need! • Facing a reluctance from others to engage in conversations about #bias and #discrimination. We need to talk about these issues openly, not sweep them under the rug! But through Recruit Refugees, I am committed to: • Advocating for your skills and experiences, no matter what your current level of Norwegian might be. • Recognizing you as an individual with #unique talents, not just a label. • Connecting you with job opportunities that truly match your qualifications. • Providing accessible, #multilingual resources so you can find the support you need. • Fostering open conversations about #inclusion and #diversity, ensuring everyone feels seen and valued. We are here for you, comment with questions!
