Improving Summer Jobs for Young People

The Centre Party proposed that young people receiving summer jobs through the City of Stockholm should undergo mandatory CV training, and that the application process should more closely resemble the regular job market, for example by requiring a cover letter. The City Executive Board responded that the current application process is already similar to the regular one and that a mandatory CV course could raise barriers for young people. They also noted that an investigation into the central coordination of summer jobs, which includes possibilities for offering voluntary job search support, is already underway.
