A Meaningful Solution to the Talent Shortage and Refugee Crisis 02.7.2022 | Mark Bennett

Talent Beyond Boundaries

As a company that believes in the power of relocation to transform lives, we are proud to announce a partnership with Talent Beyond Boundaries, a global, not-for-profit organization that matches skilled refugees with companies in need of labor.

Together, we’ll be working to help companies fill critical roles and talent gaps by creating safe, legal pathways for displaced people to relocate for work, resume their careers, and rebuild their lives with dignity.

This partnership gives us a new opportunity to do what we do best — help people relocate, settle in and begin a more rewarding life. In the wake of the Great Resignation (AKA The Great Migration), finding highly skilled talent is extremely difficult. But together, Talent Beyond Boundaries and Weichert Workforce Mobility will connect companies to a new source of candidates to fill critical talent gaps while supporting a more inclusive and diverse workforce. And our distinctive suite of services will make it easier for these employees and their families to assimilate into new locations.

Our core Belief in Raising Your Hand encourages us — as a company and as individuals — to take the initiative to support causes that make this world a better place. Through this partnership, we have an opportunity to make a positive impact on both the refugee crisis and the talent shortage, and unleash global talent in a new and meaningful way.

Simply put, it’s a different way for relocation companies to think about our role in society and we’re proud to continue to raise the bar — and the stakes.

For more on this partnership, please see our press release.
