Research: Why Inclusive Hiring Must Include Refugees

  • Betina Szkudlarek

hci research jobs

Six ways companies of any size can engage this overlooked talent pool.

When companies seek to engage in more inclusive recruitment, they often overlook recruitment initiatives focused on refugees. The number of global refugees, asylum seekers, and others in need of international protection surpassed 50.3 million people at the end of 2023, per the U.N. Refugee Agency. The authors cite their findings from two of their studies: first, that managers who have never recruited from this group tend to not only undervalue the benefits of this talent pool, but also hold various misconceptions and biases around recruiting and hiring refugees; and second, that traditional recruitment processes prevent managers from tapping into non-traditional talent pools. From their studies based on conversations with managers, talent leaders, and job seekers from refugee backgrounds, the authors offer 6 ways companies can better recruit from this talent pool: scrutinize your hiring criteria, be proactive and creative with recruitment, reevaluate your selection processes, consider utilizing external support, reach out to industry peers, and think of inclusive recruitment beyond direct recruitment.

As organizations seek to be more inclusive in their recruitment and hiring practices, one area they can improve upon is expanding their talent acquisition playbook to include refugees.

This study aimed to investigate the impact of job boredom on job outcomes, namely, job satisfaction and counterproductive work behavior, focusing on the role of different types of mind-wandering – spontaneous and deliberate mind-wandering. The results showed that deliberate mind-wandering mediates the link between job boredom and job satisfaction, while spontaneous mind-wandering mediates the connection between job boredom and counterproductive work behavior. In essence, when employees experience boredom at work, their spontaneous mind-wandering can lead to harmful behaviors, affecting their colleagues and organizations. On the other hand, deliberate mind-wandering can improve job satisfaction. This study provides valuable insights for managing job boredom and suggests future research directions.

How Roblox Is Fueling Careers Across the USA

  • To better understand Roblox’s impact on the U.S. economy, we’re releasing the results of our first economic and social impact report.

While Roblox does not employ creators, between 2017 and 2023, the direct and indirect impact of our Developer Exchange ( DevEx ) Program* was nearly 18,000 full-time job equivalents** across the country.

Of the respondents who monetize on our platform, 38% said they wouldn’t have earned income from making interactive content without Roblox. And 56% said they don’t develop for any other platforms.

We also found many of our U.S. creators are based in regions far from the large, coastal cities typically associated with technology.

Every day, 79.5 million users*** come to Roblox to visit millions of experiences and engage with millions of 3D items made by our community of creators. During the 12 months ended June 30, 2024, we distributed $803 million to our global creator community, up 18% over the previous 12 months. These creators, who build the experiences, avatars, and items available on Roblox, live across the U.S., including many in regions not typically associated with technology.

To enable the creation of anything, anywhere, by anyone, we have invested in a robust suite of tools, available via Roblox Studio , the most accessible 3D development tool in the world. With Studio, any creator can find an audience, publish globally in seconds, and iterate rapidly. Creators come to Roblox for many reasons: Some create on Roblox to learn how to code or make games , some are driven by the fun of creating , and some are interested in monetizing their creations and building a business on Roblox. Knowing this, we wanted to better understand how Roblox has influenced people’s businesses and impacted the economies in areas not traditionally associated with the technology industry.

EcoImpact1.webp

Our Support of U.S. Creators Also Has an Economic Impact

People of all ages and backgrounds create on Roblox. While some create for the joy of playing with friends, others go on to pursue careers in technology or gaming by monetizing the experiences, 3D models, avatars, outfits, or accessories they create. Our research showed in the U.S., between 2017 and 2023, we generated an estimated GDP of $1.2 billion . In 2023 alone, we generated an estimated GDP of $345 million. While Roblox does not employ creators, the direct and indirect impact of our Developer Exchange program during that 7-year period was 17,840 full-time job equivalents* * and contributed $324 million in tax revenue ***** to the U.S. economy between 2017 and 2023. In the past year alone, more than 7,500 of the 5.5 million U.S. creators monetizing on Roblox made more than $650.

We support creators throughout their journey as they build their businesses with the tools and features available on Roblox. Recently, we launched even more features to help them, including the ability to publish immersive ads , the ability to sell on the Creator Store , in-experience purchases , and an easier way for more creators to create, sell, and resell avatar items .

Our Economic Impact Benefits Communities Across the U.S.

The report shows creators across the U.S., including outside the large, coastal cities typically associated with the technology industry, are taking advantage of the economic opportunities Roblox provides. According to the report, half of the creators bringing in the equivalent of full-time earnings on Roblox in the U.S. from 2017-2023 were in areas nowhere near cities with large, established technology industries.

For example, the developer MrWindy lives in Utah, where he works full-time running Flee the Facility , an adventure game that’s been played more than 4.5 billion times. He’d always loved playing video games, but after discovering Roblox, his passion turned to making games. About a year after he began developing on Roblox, he was able to fully support himself with the earnings from Flee the Facility. What’s more, he found a like-minded community in Roblox. “I enjoy connecting with others who get me and know what I am working towards,” he says.

We Provide a Way to Become a Developer With Little to No Upfront Cost

For millions of people, Roblox represents a low-barrier path to creating 3D experiences, games, and items. We seek to provide creators with everything they need to take their ideas from concept to reality. This goal is at the heart of everything we do, from the developer tools we build to the developer events we host. As a result, there are developers of all experience levels and teams of all sizes — from two-person teams to large developer studios — who are succeeding on Roblox. In fact, our survey found that 38% of the 384 respondents who monetize on our platform would not have made money from developing interactive content without Roblox.

EcoImpact2.webp

This number is especially exciting to us, since fostering the creator community is core to what we do at Roblox. Based on conversations with many exceptional creators, we found they started out playing on Roblox, began building for fun, learned to code and build worlds on the platform, then built successful careers on Roblox and in the broader STEM field. That was made possible because of our foundation as an advanced development environment built on real-world physics. And with emerging technology like AI powering tools like Assistant , learning becomes accessible to a wider range of curious creators.

For example, Nevada’s alertcoderf had never been interested in math. But as he watched other Roblox creators in his early days on the platform, his eyes were opened to how integral math was to thinking like a programmer — a dream of his since his early days on Roblox. “Seeing what other people [were] making led me to want to figure out how I [could] learn from them,” he says. “You start asking questions and developing connections to participate in the cool things people are doing and making.” He then progressed quickly from building his first game to being the head of Twin Atlas , which runs popular experiences like Creatures of Sonaria and Dragon Adventures and has become one of the largest Roblox developer studios.

Many professional Roblox creators are solo entrepreneurs, while others, like alertcoderf, are using their earnings to hire employees and build teams. Other studios grow and scale to tens or hundreds of employees, such as alertcoderf and Twin Atlas. We’re proud that we’ve created a market where individuals, small studios, and large studios alike have the potential to operate profitably.

We are committed to fostering a partnership with our community and we’re proud of the steady growth in the number of people who are creating on our platform. Roblox is one of the largest creative communities in the world, and we’re working every day to expand the opportunity to create.

The economic and social impact report illustrates that any U.S. creator with the necessary time, skill, effort, and strategy has the opportunity to make a career out of building on our platform, no matter where they are located. We provide the tools, scale, and monetization pathways to help them do so. And we’ll support them, whether it’s a small indie development studio in Nevada or an aspiring artist in Utah. No matter who it is, we can’t wait to see the great things our creator community will build as it expands.

ABOUT CANVAS

On our proprietary research team—Market Intelligence—you’ll partner with our Investment Professionals and Compliance team to uncover insights about companies, industries, and the broader economy through deep fundamental research. Canvas is the supply chain research group within Market Intelligence. Canvas conducts compliant supply chain research by developing deep industry expertise, talking with private company executives, and synthesizing information for portfolio managers and analysts. Our team produces impactful research that will change the way you look at the world.

ROLE SUMMARY

When you join the Canvas team, you’re signing up for the learning experience of a lifetime. You will never look at anything the same way—from grocery stores to tires to semiconductors. Every day, Canvas team members speak with some of the most successful private company executives and learn about the businesses they’ve spent their lives building. The team synthesizes findings in comprehensive reports that are consumed by Point72 investment professionals. Other Market Intelligence divisions do quantitative research to explain  what  is going on in an industry. As a Fundamental Researcher, your qualitative research will explain the  why.  During the 10-week program based in our New York office, you will gain exposure to:

  • How to develop subject matter expertise in multiple different industries.
  • Learning from small, medium, and large private company executives about their businesses and the industries in which they operate, including gathering qualitative data on what is happening (e.g., structural shifts; real-time changes in supply/demand dynamics; and emerging competitors, markets, and technologies) and, importantly,  why  it is happening
  • Synthesizing your findings in comprehensive daily summaries and reports that present a view of an industry
  • Access to business leaders across industries, including private company executives and your colleagues
  • How Canvas works with investment professionals and helps drive more informed investment decisions.

WHAT EXCITES US

  • Excellent attention to detail, organization, and project management skills

  • Ability to collaborate and build relationships across multiple business units within the Firm
  • People who “elevate the room” through their work ethic, curiosity, and attitude
  • Adherence to the highest ethical standards working closely with the Firm’s Compliance team

WHAT’S REQUIRED

  • Demonstrated academic success and strong analytical skills
  • Excellent written and verbal communication abilities
  • An eagerness to find out if your conclusions are right or wrong
  • An interest in learning how companies work (their processes and outcomes)
  • Intellectual curiosity, creative thinking, maturity

WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE

  • Integrity—You demonstrate 100% commitment to the highest ethical standards
  • Ownership—You take charge of your work, uphold your commitments, and always do your best

  • Humility—You welcome and are receptive to feedback and learn from past mistakes
  • Adaptability—You can triage business needs and context switch quickly and efficiently
  • Admirability—You elevate the room through your work ethic, domain knowledge, work product, and solution orientated attitude
