NEW YORK – September 17, 2024 – TRU Staffing Partners, a globally recognized award-winning talent agency and five-time Inc. 5000 Fastest-Growing U.S. company, today announced its successful ongoing is partnership with the International Center for Advocates Against Discrimination (ICAAD). Since the launch of the partnership earlier this year, pro bono opportunities for legal technology professionals, published through TRU’s job board, have been fully embraced by the community, resulting in record engagement with thousands of legal and legal technology professionals worldwide.
ICAAD, a human rights organization committed to creating innovative solutions that disrupt unjust systems, aims to ensure a more equitable future. This collaboration provides TRU Staffing Partners’ extensive network of legal technology professionals access to ICAAD’s pro bono opportunities. TRU’s recruitment teams, marketing engine, and custom in-house technology has driven awareness to ICAAD opportunities and furthered their mission to advocate against discrimination and promote human rights across the world.
“The legal technology community is at an apex moment where thoughtful innovation, particularly related to A.I., is at the fingertips of the masses. The community of professionals that TRU Staffing Partners represents and actively cultivates cares deeply about perpetuating positive change through the application of innovative technology,” said Jared Coseglia, Founder & CEO of TRU Staffing Partners. “The response from the legal technology community has been so successful and voluminous that our initial batch of jobs for ICAAD published via TRU’s job board have all been filled. But more pro bono positions will be coming — we are thrilled to be a part of this movement and look forward to continuing our collaboration with ICAAD as new opportunities arise.”
“With support from TRU Staffing Partners, ICAAD, a human rights innovation and education center, is on the lookout for a passionate and skilled legaltech team ready to tackle the pressing human rights issue of sex-based violence,” said Jyoti Diwan, Director - Data Analytics and Insights at ICAAD. “The ideal team will bring expertise in A.I., machine learning, natural language processing, and web development to help us automate and scale our TrackGBV (Tracking Gender-Based Violence) program and help improve justice sector service delivery for the victims/survivors of gender-based violence. Their contributions will be instrumental in creating systemic changes in judicial practices.”
