Upwardly Global

“Often immigrants and refugees are exiled from the mainstream workforce. Upwardly Global helps them begin their job search, develop their talent and improve their lives and the lives of others.”

Isabel Allende, Author

Highly qualified immigrant professionals want to rebuild their careers here in the U.S., but they're not familiar with the American way to job search.

Employers want to increase their competitive advantage by hiring a more diverse workforce, but they're not sure how to navigate the professional immigrant talent pool.

Enter Upwardly Global. We are a nonprofit organization that helps highly-skilled immigrants, refugees and asylees reclaim their careers here in the United States and helps American employers discover and understand this hidden talent pool.
