The company has created a landing page to collect basic information from those in need, sign up volunteers, and answer general questions. The firm expects to hear from those who work in hospitality and healthcare primarily, but it is prepared to help all displaced individuals find work.
IQTalent Partners co-founder and Vanderbilt graduate, Chris Murdock, said, “I am extremely proud of these employees for creating this initiative. We have an internal employee-driven group that we call the ‘NERDnitiative’ who proactively finds ways to help our local Nashville community on a regular basis. They saw a need where they had the specific skillset to create a solution, and they just did it!”
People are encouraged to visit http://recruitrelief.org and fill out the online form in order to receive the free assistance. The firm has dozens of expert volunteers who will reach out to each person individually.
