Confidence and Self-Sufficiency
Among the many people turning to LEAP, from a wide array of cultures and backgrounds, are:
-
New immigrants (olim chadashim)
-
Veteran immigrants (vatikim)
-
Native-born Israelis of immigrant parents
-
Temporary residents
-
Returning Israeli citizens (toshavim chozrim)
-
Israelis who grew up abroad (k'tinim chozrim)
LEAP collaborates closely with many guidance and support organizations dedicated to helping olim chadashim adjust to their new home. We also run a workshop of our own for new immigrants called Welcome to the Israeli Job Market.
Many of our candidates return to LEAP for further career advice over the years, which we are more than happy to provide. Others come back to us for placement assistance several times as opportunities for transition arise.
As a people-focused organization, the very proudest moments at LEAP have been when candidates for whom we originally found positions later turned to us as confident, self-sufficient employers themselves.
