Familiarity with case management software, database systems, and knowledge of immigration or resettlement processes are typically required. Strong cultural sensitivity, problem-solving, and interpersonal communication skills help build trust and advocate effectively for clients. These skills are essential to support refugees in navigating complex systems and achieving successful integration into their new communities.
