Summer Student Mortgage Derivatives Analyst — Voya Financial

About Creative Spirit

Creative Spirit US is a 501c nonprofit designed to ensure equal employment opportunities for neurodiverse talent connecting them with fair-wage positions at forward-thinking companies. Since its founding in 2017 weve utilized our coaching mentoring training and job placement services to resolve unemployment. Ensuring neurodiverse employment is even more important now as 1 in 5 people are neurodivergent ().

Thus far weve had an almost 100% retention rate for all the candidates weve placed. But were more than just a job placement service. We collaborate personally with a wide range of companies and business leaders to help them reevaluate their hiring practices. Our goal is to change the status quo for job seekers who are neurodivergent placing at least 1 million candidates in fair-wage jobs by 2030 as part of our #HireDifferent agenda.
