YES is a non-profit organization that helps English-speaking Quebecers find jobs, develop their…read morebusinesses, or find guidance as professional artists. Basically, they serve three groups (some of which overlap): 1. People aged 18-35 who need help with finding a job (so YES offers help in refining their resumes, interview prep, French for the workplace, etc). 2. Entrepreneurs of all ages who need access to resources for developing their businesses (YES offers workshops on writing business plans, legal info, project management, registering your business, networking, plus free one-on-one business coaching with a coach who is matched to you, either online or in-person). 3. Artists of all ages who need help with career development (YES offers workshops on navigating social media promotion, finding funding, grant writing, time management, also many of them free). Having used their services on and off for the last 10 years, and much more in recent months, I find YES is incredibly helpful for giving newbie entrepreneurs insights and direction on where to go with their project. I feel their coaches have a lot of information and expertise to share, and the advice they give is quite relevant more often than not. Also, the connections you make with other newbie entrepreneurs in the workshops is quite motivating. I feel that their offerings to artists is also very helpful, especially as it's well-structured, consistent and seems to fill a huge need within the English-speaking community. In recent years, they seem to have shifted from only in-person to both in-person and online workshops, which is great! Personal coaching, and most workshops are freely available with the yearly membership of $30, with some workshops with guest speakers priced affordably at $20 - 40. Personally, at my stage of business development, I'd rather pay $30 to use their affordable services, AND have access to a personal business coach, rather than paying much more for some random coach online. All in all, it's a valuable resource for the English-speaking community in Quebec, and I recommend it for anyone who's starting out as a professional artist and/or entrepreneur.

I had a very bad experience and retrieved from their program. Ms X doesn't listen! She asks…read morequestions, I provided answers and she asked the same questions that were previously answered . It happened more than once. I then told her that I changed my mind and will not continue with them. I decided to just go with another program who offers work placement which is more suitable to me. But also I couldn't imagine how this lady who doesn't listen could coach me? Even if I made it clear that I wanna stop and retrieve myself from the program, later that day she kept on calling me and texting me. Insisting to talk me and I had to reply Non Madame. Although I made it clear that I wasn't interested and here again a month later, today, she calls me and I had to repeat myself again! I truly didn't feel like this lady could help me at all! I had to share my experience. I also have serious doubts about her French skills... I'm just surprised on how many people "claimed" to have had a good experience with them?! Maybe it's only her the problem in the team? I just don't want to hear about them and I really hope this was their last attempt to connect with me. (It almost felt like harassment or maybe it's just a language barrier problem and because she's just doesn't understand no?) I have moved on quick and I'm very happy with the services of Placement assisté of PME Mtl. If ever you look for a serious alternative, they do more than just coaching but they connect with you with employers.
