Overseas: Overseas Service Provider Toolkit
TOPIC: EMPLOYMENT (ICMC/Zagreb)
Activity: What Are Your Skills? (Self awareness/Completing a skills assessment)
Introduction
Since hiring in the U.S. is based on the skills of the job applicant, refugees should be aware of the skills they possess. In this activity, refugees identify their own skills.
Objective
Given a list of skills, participants will be able to recognize which ones they possess and categorize the skills as skills developed on the job, skills acquired in life, or time management skills
Materials
Procedure
-
Divide participants into groups according to employment sectors in which they have worked. If you have a class of young people with no work experience (or housewives), ask participants to begin with the sector in which they think they might have the most skills.
-
Ask the groups to brainstorm a list of skills related to their employment sector.
-
When they think they have a complete list of skills, distribute the skills posters. Ask them to use these posters to identify any skills they think are missing from their list.
-
Give each participant a skills form.
-
Participants transfer their list of skills to the skills form. Model this process by asking a participant to describe what s/he does at home and at work and ask the rest of the class to use the poster to identify and categorize this participant's skills. This technique will also assist participants who are having trouble identifying and categorizing their skills.
Variation
For participants who have already identified their skills, write a job description on a board and ask the participants to identify the skills needed. Then ask them to state which skills are related to self-management or skills they might acquire through life.
