Developing Talent
Investing in talent brings in big returns. We are dedicated to fostering a nimble talent pipeline to supply the career paths of the future.
HIRE Charlotte
What if we approached job creation with more intentionality, collaboration and action? HIRE Charlotte is a strategic employment initiative that aligns Charlotte-Mecklenburg’s entire employment ecosystem – employers, economic development organizations, educational institutions, workforce training and development organizations, government and nonprofits – around a central goal to create and fill good jobs that drive economic prosperity for all. By coordinating and connecting efforts, the business recruitment, talent training, job seeker journey, and employee hiring process will be more streamlined, improving the path for upward mobility for our residents. Working together, we will advance a more holistic approach to career development and support.
