Imagine fleeing your home (and everything and everyone you know) to escape violence, persecution or disease outbreak. You move into a temporary refugee camp with the desire to safely live and work in another country, only to get stuck in a refugee camp for multiple years with no ability to work.

This is what’s happened to 70.8 million people around the world who have been forced from their home. But only 1% of this population will be resettled in a developed country like the US.

Today’s guest, Chris Chancey, founder of Amplio Recruiting, found a way to match the dependable refugee workforce with some of the 7 million open positions in the US that will go unfilled this year. So far, they have placed over 5,000 refugees living in the US into full time employment over the past 4 years. Amplio Recruiting has far surpassed the retention rate of the staffing industry norms and are a certified B corp.

In this interview, Chris tells us how he got the idea for Amplio and how they’re different than the average staffing company. He educates us on the refugee workforce, their strengths that makes them valuable employees and some enlightening stories of refugees they have placed. Chris leaves us with what employers can do to help the refugee workforce be successful at their companies.

Do you want a short summary of each week’s podcast? Each week, I send out an email that goes one step further than the interview. It’s my reflection of what I pulled out of the interview and at least one tip (and usually more) about how you can apply all the goodness to your work and life.
