Miranda’s Story

Miranda’s Success Story

When Miranda first connected with a facilitator at SSILC just over a year ago, she had a clear goal in mind: find a flexible contract job that would allow her to use her creativity and communication skills. With dedication and a strong work ethic, Miranda attended SSILC’s Job Interview Class, where she built confidence and sharpened her interview skills.

She didn’t stop there. Miranda worked closely with her facilitator on crafting compelling cover letters that showcased her unique strengths and experience. One opportunity in particular caught her eye—a six-month contract position editing the newsletter for the Canadian Mental Health Association (CMHA). With a thoughtfully written application and a growing sense of confidence, Miranda applied.

She got the job.

Since then, Miranda has thrived as newsletter editor. She’s written engaging stories and brought fresh ideas to the table. Her journey is a testament to perseverance, collaboration, and believing in yourself—even when the path isn’t always clear.

We’re so proud of Miranda and all that she’s accomplished—and we can’t wait to see what she’ll do next!
