At first glance, the year-plus persistence of the Great Resignation does not bode well for employers — but it does force companies to rethink their recruitment strategy.

The Labor Department reported a total of 4.3 million people quit their jobs in March. Job openings jumped to 11.5 million, but the hiring rate did not keep up, stalling at 4.5%. Talent is out there — companies just need to know where to look.

Mapis is a free career development platform built specifically for international students. It features a centralized database of internships, fellowships, entry-level jobs and exploratory career programs that accept employment authorizations, allowing international students to engage in U.S.-based work relevant to their area of study. Mapis is a one-stop hub for international students looking to bring their talents to U.S. employers.

On the flip side, Mapis invites recruiters to connect with its users through weekly webinars, so potential candidates can learn more about the given company. Bloomberg, Google, Twitter, McKinsey and TikTok have participated.
