How can some of the biggest companies across New York find skilled workers to fill gaps in their workforce? Guest Kiersten Barnet may have answers. She is the Executive Director of the New York Jobs CEO Council, an organization made up of some of the biggest CEOs in New York. She tells host Jason Altmire that her organization is aiming to build a workforce and education system in New York City that benefits both workers and employers.
Barnet explains that they create connections between New York CEOs and local talent from New York schools with the goal of hiring 100,000 low-income New Yorkers by 2030. They offer opportunities for high school and college students to pursue apprenticeships in their area of interest, opening a pathway to eventually securing a full-time job at that company. These opportunities can help to overcome barriers that New York students face in getting a degree, as they can get paid in a job in their field while they learn.
