Breaking Into the U.S. Job Market: Kate Ferman’s Story with CPI


At the Career Pathway Institute (CPI), we believe that the best way to inspire and guide new immigrants in their U.S. career journey is by sharing real stories of success. Our volunteers, like Kate Ferman, a Paid Media Specialist, generously share their experiences to support those just starting. Today, we're excited to feature how CPI played a key role in helping Kate navigate the U.S. job market and ultimately land her first job in San Francisco. Read on for an inspiring journey and practical tips you can apply to your career search!


With CPI's help, I found a job in the USA! 


I moved to San Francisco in December 2022 and had a tough time finding work at first. I wanted to understand how American job-hunting works. So, I decided to talk more to local folks and professionals who've been here a while. A new friend invited me to a real-life event at Stanford, put together by the Career Pathway Institute. They help immigrants like me find jobs in the USA.


At this event, I met many friendly people who shared my goals. We talked about making our LinkedIn profiles better and more professional. The person who spoke at the event, Eugeniya, gave us some really helpful tips for improving our LinkedIn profiles. I put all those tips into my profile right away, and my LinkedIn page looked much better and more convincing.


This made a big difference in helping me land my first job in the US, and it made me seem like I knew what I was doing here.
