An engaged group of attendees joined us at Cozen O’Connor on July 11, 2023, for lunch and an update on immigration trends and challenges, current employment trends – including global mobility programs – across the US and in Florida and a discussion on strategies that employers can use as part of their international recruitment strategy. The program also looked at the recent Florida bills aiming to target the influx of illegal immigration into the state with tougher employment requirements, including some of the strongest penalties in the nation for employers, and their potential impact on companies operating in the Sunshine State or with plans to do so.
Amanda Crouch, Talent Enablement Leader at RSM US, offered insights into RSM’s Mid-Market Talent Gap Survey while Annabel Edo, Managing Director US at Ackermann International and Steven Bostock, Partner at Mishcon de Reya in London, discussed the approach taken by international employers and job seekers and the positive perception that Florida has with companies overseas. The program was moderated by Scott Bettridge, Chair Immigration Practice at Cozen O’Connor, who also provided some immigration-specific updates.
All in all, the event was marked by a good discussion, timely information, lively interactions and helpful connections!
