WIN’s Past Projects
“You Belong” Project
The vision for this video is to raise awareness about the State as an employer of choice for immigrant communities, showcase the diversity of the state workforce, and promote the State as a welcoming environment where immigrants can feel valued, appreciated, and belong. The video presentation will showcase several current state immigrant employees' stories illustrating their experience with recruitment, applying, hiring, and onboarding.
In addition, through the stories, you will hear about resources available for immigrant state employees. These include mentoring programs, business resource groups, and training and development opportunities. You’ll hear the voices of Immigrant state employees who describe experiences with agency mobility and promotional opportunities to showcase the full career development from recruitment through career advancement. The intended audience is members of immigrant communities and refugees with the relevant skills to diversify the state workforce.
