Talent Acquisition: How Immigration Helps Agricultural Companies Meet Workforce Development Needs
Rachel Beardsley

In a fiercely competitive labor market, agricultural companies are seeking creative solutions to tap into new sources of talent to meet their hiring needs.  Employment based immigration can be key to a company’s ability to achieve their workforce development needs as there are full-time and seasonal work visas available to lawfully hire talent from outside of the U.S., which is a vital pipeline for employers facing domestic talent shortages.  This session will cover strategies for temporary work visas as well as long-term strategies for immigration program management.
