Problem Statement / Project

In partnership with the Mastercard Foundation, Jobberman aims to provide Nigerian job seekers with the skills they will need to enhance their chances of securing work in an overcrowded job market and place them in dignified work. The partnership aims to train 5 million job seekers and place 3 million in dignified employment over the next five years. Training will be focused on soft skills such as emotional intelligence, business etiquette, and time management. It will be delivered online and offline for people with limited access to the internet. To initiate this project, Jobberman designed a training program to help the aspirants learn the necessary soft skills

The Solution

Jobberman team was already using iMocha for assessing candidates on their portal. Their team decided to leverage iMocha for the Mastercard project as well. Mastercard, Jobberman, and iMocha teams brainstormed to select job-relevant skills and divide them into 7 categories:

  1. Personal Effectiveness
  2. Effective Communication
  3. Employability Skills
  4. Critical Thinking
  5. Innovation
  6. Business Etiquette
  7. Team Work

iMocha along with Jobberman created pre-and post-training assessments. Mastercard Foundation chose 4 proficiency buckets; Beginner, Intermediate, Proficient, and Experienced. Candidates were assessed and provided training as per their proficiency bucket. After completion of the training, candidates were reassessed and received certificates as per their proficiency levels.

The Result

Since the launch of the soft-skills training program, over 50,000 youngsters have successfully been placed in dignified work between April and December.
