Apricot

About

We are Apricot International, a nonprofit organization dedicated to bridging the gap between displaced talent and global opportunity. Our mission is grounded in a simple yet powerful belief: while talent is distributed equally around the world, opportunity is not. We exist to change that narrative by connecting displaced and underserved professionals from the Middle East and North Africa (MENA)—with a particular focus on Palestine—to high-quality remote technology jobs. We operate at the 'last mile' of the employment pipeline, ensuring that skilled individuals can overcome systemic barriers such as legal restrictions and limited mobility. Our approach is holistic; we don't just match resumes to job descriptions. We provide end-to-end support that includes training in interview skills, onboarding, communication, and ongoing mentorship to ensure long-term retention and career growth. Backed by a team with experience at industry giants like Google, Salesforce, and Target, we combine operational excellence with deep regional credibility to build a more inclusive and resilient future, one job at a time.
