Mentorship
An attorney’s story:
Spent the last 5+ years as a career counselor for disadvantaged communities, and was seeking a path back to the legal field.
NewMoonJobs connected her with a mentor who is a lawyer, where they built out a one year plan for taking the bar exam and getting a part time internship at a law firm.
Internship
A documentary director’s story:
The director was heading to film school and NewMoonJobs placed him in an internship to help build a professional portfolio to graduate with.
Contract
An english major’s story:
10 years as an admin without any promotions, she came to NewMoonJobs seeking a path to a professional career.
NewMoonJobs trained her in market research and placed her in a contract job that turned into a full time market research position.
Full Time
A data analytics PhD’s story:
Received resume help and interview prep from NewMoonJobs, which resulted in getting multiple offers and a full time six figure position.
We envision a world where American businesses don’t miss out on the love of learning, innovative problem-solving and the sheer grit refugees are known for.
Business Impact
Meaningfully engaging the talented and diverse refugee workforce.
Our refugees come from a variety of professional backgrounds and bring a wealth of experience to the table. Their talent and diversity has gone untapped for decades, and it’s time to change that.
Mentorship
Our mentors make everything we do at NewMoonJobs possible. We’re always looking to grow our community of career professionals in search of another way to bring purpose to their everyday, and use what they already know to further a refugee’s career.
What Folks Are Saying
“I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to NMJ for training and helping me find a job. You were invaluable in preparing me both for my initial and final interviews. Your efforts went a long way towards making me feel comfortable in telling my unique story.”
— Sarah (Refugee)
“Being a mentor with NewMoonJobs has been an amazing experience that is both fulfilling and eye opening. I’m constantly inspired by the hard work, determination, and resilience of my mentee as well as the NMJ staff.”
— Omar (Mentor)
“My company works at the intersection of data, technology and entertainment, so we require very distinct talent and at times divergent talent. On top of that, we are a company focused on diversity; a company that thrives on different perspectives and life experiences.
NewMoonJobs has been a tremendous resource in helping us to fulfill our staffing needs. NMJ was even able to help us find a talented director and filmmaker to help us produce our first animated pilot. I couldn't be happier!”
