Reseña del libro "QUALIFIED BUT OVERLOOKED (en Inglés)"
For countless immigrants, arriving in America is only the beginning. Many discover that degrees earned abroad are questioned, years of professional experience are discounted, accents influence perceptions of competence, and opportunities can remain frustratingly out of reach.Qualified But Overlooked explores the often-unspoken struggle of educated and experienced immigrants trying to build successful careers in corporate America.Drawing attention to occupational downgrading, the "U.S. experience" paradox, accent bias, credential recognition, networking barriers, workplace discrimination, and the invisible rules of corporate culture, Stanley Nkemnole examines why talented immigrants can find themselves starting over despite arriving highly qualified.But this is not simply a book about barriers. It is also about strategy, resilience, adaptation, and advancement.Readers will discover practical ways to: - Translate international experience into a "language" American employers understand- Build professional networks without abandoning authenticity- Navigate interviews, promotions, workplace culture, and office politics- Respond strategically to bias and discrimination- Rebuild professional identity after starting over- Turn immigrant experience into a competitive advantage- Pursue success without losing the identity and values that shaped themWhether you are an immigrant professional trying to break into corporate America, an HR professional seeking to understand immigrant talent, a manager building a more inclusive workplace, or someone interested in the realities behind the American Dream, Qualified But Overlooked offers a timely examination of what happens when talent crosses borders-but recognition does not.Your qualifications did not disappear when you crossed a border. The challenge is making sure America sees them.
