Career Resource Highlights Young LGBTQ Professionals



OUT for Work is proud to announce a new career resource for LGBTQ college students transitioning from academia to the workplace: 30 under 30. Sponsored by pharmaceutical leader, Merck, this resource will inspire the next generation of LGBTQ employees by highlighting and sharing the stories of those younger professionals already in the workplace. 30 under 30 will be distributed in 2011 to colleges across the United States and available for download in OUT for Work’s Virtual Career Center.  There is no cost to participate. Deadline to complete survey: March 1, 2011. 
To be considered for the publication, individuals complete a brief survey.  Results from the survey will highlight the perspective of younger LGBTQ professionals on the importance of LGBTQ inclusive workplace policies, experiences coming out and being out and open in the workplace, and advice to those preparing to enter the workforce. 
 About OUT for Work: OUT for Work (OFW) is the only national nonprofit that functions as a complimentary component in the total educational experience of LGBT students, primarily in the development, evaluation, initiation and implementation of career plans and opportunities. OFW’s programs, resources and services provide assistance to students in the cultivation and enhancement of skills to explore career options, master search techniques and strategies and research employment opportunities.
