For success, applicants must frequently set-aside their previous job-hunting knowledge and experience to learn anew. Counselors and supporters can be challenged by navigating the labyrinth of market resources and advice not necessarily developed with the linguistic and cultural challenges of the foreign-born worker in mind. During my 42-year career working with immigrant newcomers, I was keenly aware of the lack of reliable authoritative materials that tackled such issues and needs. Now, along comes<em> Welcome to the U.S.A - You're Hired!</em> The author, Betsy Cohen, Founding Executive Director of the St. Louis Mosaic Project, along with a number of contributing experts, has expertly laid out the search, hiring and post-hiring process to ease the process and improve opportunities.

This book gives you a map, a compass, and a backpack full of supplies. Previous generations of newcomers have struggled to put together this kind of information bit by bit. Today, books like this one provide a vital overview, making it possible for you to instead focus your energy on choosing the most rewarding opportunities. May you and your talents flourish in the United States!"</p><p><strong>Amanda Bergson-Shilcock</strong></p><p><em>Immigration advocate</em></p><p><br></p><br>
