York's <a href=\"https:\/\/careers.yorku.ca\/workstudy-programs-campus-employment\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Work\/¿ì²¥ÊÓÆµ program<\/a> \u2013 paid, on-campus job opportunities for eligible undergraduates \u2013 offered him a way to build connections and skills and helped him prepare for work-integrated learning in future years of study.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Through the program, students gain work experience at one of York\u2019s three campuses during full-time study, and can apply as early as first year. These opportunities offer a way to develop essential professional competencies with the support of a supervisor\u2019s one-on-one coaching. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In his first year, Narechania worked at the Centre for Student Community &amp; Leadership Development, which helps new students transition to university life. As a student engagement ambassador, he provided information about the University to students, guided student clubs on their operations and developed social media content to promote the centre\u2019s offerings. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Each week, the centre\u2019s team members met to discuss their plans and progress, and Narechania was given an opportunity to lead one such meeting.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThat was important, because it helped me build my abilities at communicating and presenting, as well as my social skills,\u201d he says.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The positive experience led Narechania to subsequent work\/study positions with York International, the Office of Sustainability and the Office of the University Registrar. In these roles, he applied his technical skills to help build data analytics dashboards, track service interactions and improve process workflows. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During his final work\/study employment, his supervisor <strong>Tom Osborne<\/strong>, assistant director, academic scheduling at the Office of the University Registrar, encouraged him to think about the future. \u201cTom was my biggest cheerleader,\u201d says Narechania. \u201cHe introduced me to people who might help me find a full-time role after graduation.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Narechania leveraged his experiences and network to apply for his first co-op job, successfully earning a 12-month position as a business analyst with Hydro One. <br> <br>\u201cThe skills I developed through my work\/study roles supported me throughout the co-op application process,\u201d Narechania says. \u201cI was able to confidently share real examples during interviews.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That confidence translated to on-the-job impact, where he helped lead an end-to-end legacy system upgrade project that impacted over 9,000 field staff users. Working closely with his project manager, Narechania was involved in the project from its initial planning stage to the project\u2019s development, UAT (user acceptance testing) and its launch. Work-integrated learning, he says, prepared him for these real-world challenges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today, Narechania reflects on how much he has changed since his arrival at York four years ago. \u201cMy work experiences complemented each other. I feel skilled, more confident and more comfortable entering the job market.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With his sights set on a career as a business analyst or tech consultant, he\u2019s keen to use the technical expertise he acquired through experiential learning opportunities at York.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe work\/study roles gave me knowledge and confidence to be ready for employment,\u201d Narechania says. \u201cThey were nurturing spaces to learn how to meet the expectations of employers.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>With files from Sharon
