Below is their recruitment flier.
PROJECT STARFISH AMERICA
If you have the skills and ambition, we have the opportunities!
Are
you interested in sharpening your job-related skills?
Perhaps you want to get back into the
workforce after being away for a while. Or perhaps you would like to supplement your formal
education with real-life work experience.
Project Starfish America is a global organization
of people with disabilities preparing for the workplace of the future. Our members support
each other to learn, earn, and generally become valuable contributors in this rapidly-
changing, decentralized economy as we assist large and small businesses in areas of talent
recruitment, lead generation, datamining, and customer service. Our client roster includes
Harvard University, Booz Allen Hamilton, Holisa (located in India), Enabled Employment
(located in Australia), and Clintra (located in the Philippines). Our 60 Minutes 2 Impact
program allows members to benefit from the skills, knowledge, and experience of leaders
from around the world.
Currently, we have over 30 members from the United States, Canada,
Australia, India, the Philippines, and the United Arab Emirates. Our skills range from
marketing and human resources to business development and research. We aim to solve the
crisis in which professionals with disabilities often find ourselves: "I need experience to
get a job, but can't get a job without experience." And during the past three years, we
have helped over 150 people who are blind find work with 70 businesses.
We are looking for
people with intermediate computer and customer service skills to help us grow our business.
Most importantly, however, we are looking for committed, ambitious people willing to work
hard and learn, with a great attitude, like YOU!
