Tent Named to TIME100 Most Influential Companies ListRefugees often have prior work experience and higher education before arriving in their new host country. Yet, many struggle to restart their careers in their new communities due to unfamiliarity with the local job market and lack of personal and professional networks, among other things. Complementing Tent’s mission of connecting refugees to work, Tent’s mentorship initiative pair refugees with mentors from leading companies who will help them put together a career strategy, strengthen their resume and cover letter, practice their interview skills, and build their professional network.
