A BETTER WORLD - Pt.3

To make the world a better place, I am going to open up my own business named "Equal-Opportunity Ltd,." My business's mission is to promote equality among international hires so that everyone, no matter which country he or she is from, will get the same chance to be hired. My passion lies at my personal experience and struggle of trying to get a job at the United States. I was lucky that I had the experience of living in different countries so I truly felt blessed of this globalized world. I originally thought as the most powerful country in the world, the United States was supposed to be a very inclusive community where people from different parts of the world would be treated equally. However, going through recruiting, I realized there were so limited opportunities for international students and even when they got hired, they still had to apply for work visa through lottery system.

I understand the deep meaning behind those regulations in order to protect the US residents to secure jobs but I also feel the unfairness of this political system and helplessness from my international fellows. Coming from a different background doesn't mean that an international student is not as qualified as a local student so I feel the necessity to create this environment to provide equal opportunities to everyone. My business will be either a profit or non-profit organization, but no matter what we sell, there is one rule that is never to be changed: provide equal chances for everyone to be hired and eliminate all sorts of discrimination inside the organization.

I think my company will be a great leader in promote international equality and it will also be a proof to show a firm mainly made up of employees from different parts of the world can do the same as local companies, or even better. My ultimate mission is to get government's attention and politicians will reconsider their ideas. If my company runs well, it will help the economy grow rapidly and thus create more job opportunities. Eventually, the large amount of international immigrants will not harm the locals' rights and the international group can contribute a lot to this country. It will be a win-win strategy and I really hope to get support from partners in AMDP to get my ideas to work as soon as possible.
