Research shows  that for most immigrants, the first challenge is simply landing a job interview.  Through AIPDC, we have used our network, time, and resources to connect over 50 candidates in high paying jobs over the last two years.  With limited resources, volunteers were able to help participants with resume reviews, interviewing skills, and direct referrals. We believe that with the right resources, we can make significant stride in closing the gap for immigrants.  Our goal at CICA is to  work with business and community partners to place skilled immigrants in positions that match their educational backgrounds and experiences. 

Our process entails working one-on-one with candidates to guide them through the interviewing process.  Through coaching, training, and mentoring, candidates will gain the confidence to successfully land a job. 

We will continue to buid partnership with employers to educate them on the benefits of hiring from a diverse population that is highly educated and skilled.

In a research conducted by Glass Door,  two-thirds (67 percent) of active and passive job seekers said that a diverse workforce is an important factor when evaluating companies and job offers. Diversity and Inclusion is no longer a phrase that companies include on their website and billboards, research has shown that companies with greater diversity tend to outperforms their less diversified competitors in terms of productivity, revenue, retention, and net returns to shareholders.
