A graduate is shown from behind wearing a black graduation cap with a red tassel, facing a bright, open background. Text on the image reads: “You need experience to get the job, but you need the job to get experience.” Below, larger text says: “You’re not unqualified. Experience grows when employers create opportunities for it.”

Let’s talk real barriers.🗣️

Many job seekers already bring skills, education, volunteering, and lived experience to the table, but those assets are often overlooked when hiring focuses narrowly on “years of experience.”

Inclusive hiring starts with opportunity.
