HBCUConnect.com partners with NextEra Energy to build pipeline of African-American talent for nuclear engineering and operations careers

Columbus, Ohio – Aug. 15, 2017— HBCUConnect.com today announced a new partnership with NextEra Energy, Inc. (NYSE: NEE) to leverage HBCUConnect’s reach and penetration in Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCU) and the African-American professional community to help NextEra Energy recruit the best talent for its current and future nuclear engineering and operations career opportunities.

“This is a very unique opportunity for African-American engineers, especially those with an educational or professional background related to nuclear energy,” said Will Moss, founder of HBCUConnect.com. “We plan to build a talent pool of nuclear engineers with varying experience levels and connect them with hiring managers at NextEra Energy. The relationships that are formed may result in rewarding careers for more African-Americans and promising talent for an employer of choice, NextEra Energy.”

While the partnership with NextEra Energy offers hundreds of opportunities that candidates can apply for on HBCUConnect.com, this specific initiative targets African-American professionals who have a background in nuclear engineering or operations.



“Our partnership with HBCUConnect is yet another affirmation of our commitment to attract, hire and retain top talent,” said Melissa Miller, senior director of human resources operations and talent acquisition for NextEra Energy.
