Problem that brought them to UPSHIFT: Teenagers' fear of their first job

The solution found at UPSHIFT: the “jobs4teens” project brought together employed teenagers and those who had not yet been able to find a part-time job.

The project included meetings with a psychologist who helped young people increase their self-confidence and understand the value of the skills they had already acquired. The upshifters also conducted an information campaign about job searching, job preparation, and job characteristics.
