Since that time, M&T Bank and USAA have launched NextJob’s Homeowner Reemployment program. As Jay Brinkman, former Chief Economist for the Mortgage Banker’s Association said in 2012, ““When it’s a loan structure issue, you can deal with that, but when it’s an unemployment issue, unless you go out and find them a job there’s not much you can do . . . .” NextJob’s vision is that all mortgage borrowers will have the chance to save their homes by getting help to land a job and that the lending industry will broadly implement reemployment services with a strong ROI as a proactive solution for mortgage, credit card, auto loan and other borrower defaults due to unemployment. NextJob its work in Homeowner Reemployment with a service to reemploy borrowers defaulting on student debt. Millennials have become the largest cohort of our workforce and are known as the most educated and most underemployed generation. This suggests that a large part of our student debt challenges hinges on borrowers skills in making successful career moves. We developed leading online learning for job search using multimedia to address all learning styles, peer-to-peer interview videos and a teach-show-do methodology. In doing so, we drew on our team’s experience developing the first computer-based multi-media economics course for high schools in America in 2000. Thinking Economics is endorsed by the Council for Economic Education and taught now in over 400 schools nationwide. Through producing it, our team members learned the keys to excellent curriculum design and have applied them to job search learning. As one agency deputy director put it, we have developed a “virtual job coach” to complement whatever state specific tools an agency has chosen. We found that tools will always evolve; our goal is to make them actionable. Our vision is that every job seeker will be engaged by the agency serving them. We believe that if a WIA Core Service can be provided online, it is our job to provide that option to serve our job seekers and our budgets. Our vision is that all schools would be able to complement their career centers with online tools, curriculum and a class that become part of every student’s education. Ultimately, our vision is to help address the root cause of much of the student debt crisis. Our vision is that every service member would have the option to complement their current transition services with ongoing job search training tools, job club webinars and a dedicated one-on-one coach to help them on their journey to civilian employment. The result should be that every veteran will feel confident, directed and prepared to accomplish the mission of making a smooth and successful transition back into civilian life. Our nation is a charitable one and we have chosen to do our part based on an idea sparked by TOMS Shoes. We decided to follow their one-for-one model in our “Job-for-Job” program by giving away access to our job search software to someone in need, for every reemployment package our customers purchase. Our Job-for-Job partners range from homeless shelters, to disabled veterans organizations to women’s interview clothing charities. Our goal is to support nonprofits in their mission of self-sufficiency with excellent online learning resources for their clients. Our vision is to help eliminate the many poverties of unemployment by encouraging and supporting nonprofits with an effective tool to give their clients a hand up into employment.
