  • Refugees are dedicated and productive employees with a keen work ethic

  • Refugees offer diversity to your workplace and are often bilingual
  • Nationalities Service Center’s clients have participated in an intensive job readiness program and are carefully screened prior to placement

Our clients are authorized to work in the U.S. and can provide document to prove their eligibility. Our experienced, responsive staff works closely with employers to help make each placement a success. Nationalities Service Center offers post-placement services to help with job retention.

Nationalities Service Center’s refugee employment services are free. Employers never pay for this service!
