Capital Resource Network
The Capital Resource Network (CRN) provides confidential dual career support and family integration services. These services aim to ease the transition for newly relocated hires and their families while providing them with professional, social, and personal support during the first six months upon arrival.
The CRN works directly with the spouse/partner of the new employee on multiple strategies for gaining employment in the region. One unique aspect of the program includes coordination of informational meetings. Networking does not guarantee employment; however, it offers access to invaluable job search elements such as advice about the local landscape, questions about future hiring, potential referrals to colleagues, and an essential in-person exchange.
