Embrace the Power of Diversity and Discover Exceptional Talent with HBCU Connect!

Posted By: S. Moore on November 16, 2023


HBCU Connect stands out as a valuable resource for companies looking for diverse and excellent candidates in the ever-changing environment of talent acquisition. At HBCU Connect, we have revolutionized the recruitment field by providing employers access to a vast network of highly qualified candidates who are frequently underrepresented. We've learned about the specific abilities and ambitions of HBCU graduates, allowing them to make seamless connections.

JP Morgan Chase's Success Story

JP Morgan Chase, a global leader in financial services, has established a strong partnership with HBCU Connect and effectively used its platform to recruit and hire talented individuals from the Black community. Through their meticulously planned virtual and in-person events, they effectively showcase their company's culture and ideals, achieving remarkable success.

Testimonial 1: Rosemarie Roy-Wright Gets Re-hired.

JP Morgan Chase's Card Installment Product Owner Lead, Rosemarie Roy Wright, attributes her return to the company to her experience with HBCU Connect. After attending one of our in-person events, she was impressed by the quality of the speakers' interactive sessions and the company's sincere dedication to fostering diversity and inclusion.

Her advice for candidates is simple; "Be true to yourself when you engage with the panelists and recruiters. Don't try to mold or change who you are, and let your true essence shine forth. Managers are looking for individuals who align well with their team's dynamics, and it can only be achieved if you show up as yourself."

Testimonial 2: Ricardo Rodriguez lands his Dream job.

Ricardo Rodriguez, a Project Manager on the Products Team at JP Morgan Chase, became a part of the company after attending an event hosted by HBCU Connect. Prepared and enthusiastic, and despite having doubts about his success, he was pleasantly impressed by the high level of professionalism, the organized structure, and the numerous chances to engage with recruiters and panelists.

Encouraged by one of the panelists, Aaron Davis, Ricardo applied for a Senior Associate Project Manager role and was swiftly hired. He now works on the Chase application, fulfilling his dream job.

These testimonials vividly showcase how practical HBCU Connect events are in attracting the best talent.
