Practice your Interviewing skills
May 3 @ 6:00 PM – 7:30 PM

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!

This event is a community partnership event with Lifelong learning. It is open to all adults in the Quebec City area and Caregivers.

Overall, 60% of adult Canadians report some hearing loss. In older adults, hearing loss often happens gradually over time. This loss can easily go undetected.

However, support is available.

Join us for an information session with Janie Durette, audioprosthesist, to learn more about :

• Signs and causes of hearing loss
• The impact of hearing loss
• Aids and other tools to help improve hearing and communication skills

Registration required as places are limited.

After registering, you or your loved one can benefit from an appointment for a free hearing test.

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.
