Hello, I'd like to take a look back to a moment, last autumn,
when we woke up to that kind of news in the press.
At the time, I was searching the web looking for a job
because I was unemployed.
And I found this kind of opportunities.
They didn't match my profile,
but they seemed very interesting, and I felt bad letting them go.
Together with my friend Malena, who was in the same situation,
we began compiling those offers and putting them on a website.
so that they could be accessible to anyone interested.
That's how our project launched
and we started publishing offers like this one.
For example, Facebook in Ireland: they wanted someone who spoke Spanish.
In Dubai: a chef, speaking Spanish, in a 5-star hotel,
or a video game tester, in Spanish, in Frankfurt.
There is a dream in each of them,
we want to recycle job offers sharing the information,
that despite being public doesn't reach everyone,
and isn't always easy to find.
Some people think that we're boosting the famous brain drain.
We prefer to call it a "talent circulation."
Why demonize the fact
that one might leave the country to find a job opportunity?
We all support the Erasmus programme.
Then why don't we want our youth to go out and get an international experience?
Ana Lee Saxenian explains in her book, "The New Argonauts,"
how many young professionals who went to Silicon Valley
come back to their country of origin, bringing all their experience with them
but also establishing solid bridges between their different regions,
and this is very interesting.
But let's go back to Spain.
A year later, the press is still publishing the same thing.
Employment has not improved, on the contrary.
However, all through this year,
we've proudly shared more than 800 job openings,
many people visited our site, and we've helped them.
But we want our network to keep growing
because we think that employment is a recyclable asset,
and what is no use to me may be gold for you.
The job offer that doesn't suit me may be perfect for you, or you.
If two people have been able to do this,
what could we achieve with more collaboration?
The tool is available, it's there,
who wants to share this challenge with us?
Thank you.
(Applause)
