The latest data from the US Chamber of Commerce shows that there are currently 8 million job openings in the U.S. but only 6.8 million unemployed workers available to fill those roles. Despite federal government layoffs and a pessimistic job market for new graduates this cycle, broader demographic shifts point to a labor shortage crisis that is unfolding across America. In this session, we will discuss creative ways that recruiting leaders can tap into the 1M+ motivated and talented international students currently studying in the US and highlight case studies of innovative approaches in the most impacted sectors and geographies.
Learning Objectives:
Understand how US labor shortage is impacting different sectors and geographies
Learn how to tap into existing, under-utilized legal pathways to work for international students
Learn how to overcome the doubts and operational hurdles which drive employers to avoid hiring international students
