About the position
The American middle class is in crisis. The workforce is rapidly changing with old jobs disappearing and new jobs requiring new skills taking their place. Millions of people soon to enter the workforce or early in their careers are unclear about the prospects for jobs today and uncertain of what steps to take to land roles in the jobs and careers of tomorrow. What’s worse, many people early in their careers feel stuck in roles unaligned to their goals. They need more information, guidance, access to coursework and certifications, and ways to showcase their talent to potential employers who can help them build a better life. That’s where Tallo, a Stride company, comes in. Tallo is passionate about helping early talent explore and match high-quality jobs and complete the training they need to succeed.

Today, we engage with more than 1.6 million young people, state agencies, and dozens of organizations to make matches that change lives.
