The LinkedOut project sprang from the observation that marginalized and vulnerable people have very little chance of finding a job because they are invisible on the job market. Many homeless people aspire to find employment, have plenty of talent and determination, and are fit to work. But they do not have the professional or personal connections to help them in their search.
LinkedOut's vision: no one is unemployable. The measure of an inclusive society is the social and professional integration of its most vulnerable members, whose varied backgrounds provide real added value.

LinkedOut's vision: no one is unemployable

LinkedOut promotes the inclusion of vulnerable populations in the world of work through networking. The aim is to make marginalized people visible to recruiters and to generate employment opportunities for them.
The LinkedOut platform enables citizens to share and publish candidates' résumés on their networks in a single click. Candidates are recommended by a social worker, an employment adviser or the community, and can also send speculative applications. Once their application has been approved, a volunteer mentor guides and supports them in establishing their career plan and producing their résumé to help it go viral.
The project's ambitions do not stop there. A scheme has also been designed to support candidates throughout their job search and once they are in post. The guidance and moral support of their volunteer mentor help the candidate respond to employment opportunities and find their feet in their new job.
