The story of Javier.

What if, on top of living in Sevilla, a city with a high unemployment rate, you are also at risk of exclusion due to a disability? Such was the case for Javier Aranda Arques, a 33-year-old Sevillian. “It was hard to find a job – sometimes I lacked the right training,” says Javier. A few years back, however, his luck turned when he participated in a program created by Fundacion Randstad and Fundación Juan Ramón Guillen. Through this program, he received special training and found a job that he loves; working as a leisure and occupational counselor at a premium olive refinery.
