# "As an immigrant it is really hard to find a job as the same profession as back home"

I am grateful and thankful for the opportunity that Seneca has given me for the BES bridging program. As an immigrant it is really hard to find a job in the same profession as back home. But with BES II & I certificate, and my background in Mechanical Engineering, I landed a job as Building Maintenance Technician and I really like what I am doing. RL
