Gvahim Career Center Jerusalem
Jerusalem is fast developing into a global market for innovation; many prominent companies are building their headquarters in Israel’s capital, creating more opportunities for Olim to enter this growing ecosystem.
In partnership with the Jerusalem Municipality, GCC Jerusalem provides Olim and returning residents in Jerusalem with practical tools and knowledge for entering the Israeli job market.
Participants develop a personal career plan with a career consultant with the added support of a mentor from their professional field.
