Applications for the ConnextMSP Future of Work Fellowship are expected to open in early 2022

The ConnextMSP Future of Work Fellowship is a leadership opportunity for young professionals of color launching their careers in the Greater Minneapolis-Saint Paul region (MSP). This paid professional experience is designed for young adults excited to apply their skills, knowledge, and experience to removing institutional barriers in the career development of young professionals of color across MSP.

The Future of Work Fellowship offers an opportunity for emerging professionals to serve as partners and team members in the ConnextMSP coalition alongside leaders from top MSP employers, colleges & universities, and career pathway programs. Members of this coalition are working to re-design the early career recruiting, hiring, and onboarding system with a focus on fast-growing jobs and careers. ConnextMSP fellows will:

• Shape a critical economic development initiative for the MSP region
• Expand their network by building relationships with top MSP employers and leaders of the GREATER MSP Partnership
• Pursue tailored career development opportunities – including networking, mentorship, professional conferences and certifications – facilitated by leaders and organizations in the ConnextMSP network
• Build their resume by engaging in critical issues in MSP workplaces

ConnextMSP Future of Work Fellows will participate in a combination of activities that include ConnextMSP coalition meetings, special networking events, and trainings that position them for success in their future professional endeavors.
