The USA and Canada welcomes every year significant numbers of
immigrant professionals who have high levels of formal education
(Bachelors, Masters and Ph.D.) as well as extensive experience; yet
a significant fraction of these immigrants are unemployed or
underemployed. The purpose of this book is to help US and Canadian
organizations make full use of the significant human capital that
immigrants represent. This book will help organizations: * Modify
their recruitment and selection process to avoid rejecting
culturally different candidates for reasons that are not related to
their ability to do the job * Develop and promote culturally
diverse employees to ensure that they retain and capitalize on the
new ideas that these employees bring Highly- practical the book is
divided into two parts:- * The first part focuses on the recruiting
process. It takes readers through the recruiting process used by
most organizations and examines why cultural differences can throw
this process off . The discussion is framed by an introduction
explaining what cultural differences are and a description of
cross-cultural communication issues and suggested solutions. * The
second part examines the retention and promotion of culturally
different employees. The turnover of culturally different people is
often higher than average and they are proportionately less
represented in the higher echelons of large organizations. The work
examines the root causes of these issues and proposes solutions
that individuals and organizations can implement.
