"My early talent position at Metrolinx aligns with my career goals because it gives me the time to integrate myself into a work environment after being a student for years. It allows me to explore areas of the business, receive guidance from leaders in the business, and ultimately leads me to enhance my skillset.” - Talent and Brand Strategy 2024 Intern.
