A successful job search often comes down to the interview moment, where one gets to impress the potential employer. With the upcoming regional job fair on the horizon (on May 6 & 7), we in partnership with the FORT program would like to help you prepare for this very important step in your job search.
The moment of truth has come. You sent your CV and cover letters and now you are being called for an interview… In other circumstances, you would be relatively nervous, but you are now living in Québec City and chances are the interview will be in French or at least part of it. No need to panic! We are collaborating with the FORT program to offer you the possibility of practicing your French interviewing skills. At the end of it, you will be better equipped in terms of what kind of questions you can expect when interviewing in French, and how to prepare your selling points in the aforementioned language. Now, if your interviews are most likely to be carried out in English, then by all means you can practice in English!
This activity is 100% free and open to all!

Tickets now on sale for QAC’s The School for Scandal
Tickets can now be reserved for Quebec Art Company’s devilish farce, The School for Scandal, which premières on the stage of Holland Elementary School on Thursday, May 19. There will be three other performances of the comedy of manners, on Friday, May 20; Saturday, May 21; and a matinee on Sunday, May 22.
Seating is reserved and tickets are $20. Head on to www.quebecartcompany.com to buy your tickets! While on the website, don’t forget to check out QAC’s previous productions, dating back 40 years.
The poster for the play comes from an oil painting by noted local artist Miriam “Minum” Blair.
The School for Scandal, by R.B. Sheridan, was first performed in May 1777. A review of a 1995 production starring Tony Randall called the play “a superbly crafted laugh machine, and so timeless in delivering delectable comeuppance to a viper’s nest of idle-rich gossipmongers, that you’d practically have to club it to death to stifle its amazing pleasures.”
The QAC version, adapted by director Mark Lepitre and featuring a spirited cast, promises the same pleasures.

Did you recently move to the Greater Québec City region and have questions about the provincial health care system? In 2018 Jeffery Hale Community Services, the Community Wellness Centre, and the Voice of English-speaking Québec put together a comprehensive guide with the intention of helping newcomers navigate the medical system here in Québec City with a little more ease and efficiency. Since then, we provide a space for newcomers to meet other newcomers while having their doubts cleared out by either a nurse or a social worker from the JEFF (as we colloquially refer to the Jeffery Hale Community Services).
