Testimonials
I am delighted to have enrolled in Low Entropy’s internship program as a participant upon my arrival in Canada four months ago. Transitioning from an HR professional back in my home country to a newcomer in an overseas talent pool was daunting. While pursuing my studies, I discovered the value of volunteering as a pathway to enter the Canadian workplace.
Through the program as a participant, I honed my networking skills, developed a profound understanding of Canadian work culture, and notably enhanced my communication proficiency. The comprehensive guidance and support from the program not only fortified my confidence but also equipped me with the essential tools to excel in the Canadian job market. As a direct result of the program’s immersive experience, I secured a job, serving as evidence of its transformative impact on my professional journey. – Tharushi
