Job Placement Services

In this page you will learn what MRI can do for employers in helping them find the right person for a job.

 

MRI's main mission is to help place its qualified, highly trained students in the workforce.

That is our commitment to you

MRI is committed to help all its students find the right job. In order to do that we have developed strategic relationships with various employers in Dade County.

To utilize our no fee placement services, an employer needs only to contact one of our job developers. The job developer will request basic job descriptions and any other relevant employment information from the employer. After gathering this information the job developer will then match qualified candidates and present them to the employer to interview. There is no fee for this service

Most employers can receive major incentives to hire these students. Potential employees fall under different categories, depending on the source of the government funding aimed at helping employers hire our customers.
