Announcing Julia Pollak, Chief Economist at ZipRecruiter as recipient of the CWI Labs’ 2023 Innovation & Thought Leadership Award at Equity Summit 2023

At CWI Labs, our mission is clear: to drive meaningful change through innovative, inclusive workforce development programs and thought leadership that powers equitable economic opportunities for all. That’s why we’re thrilled to announce that Julia Pollak, Chief Economist at ZipRecruiter, will be receiving the 2023 Innovation & Thought Leadership Award at the upcoming Equity Summit 2023. Each year, the Center for Workforce Inclusion and CWI Labs convene hundreds of decision-makers, influences, policymakers, and practitioners for a unique opportunity – to discuss equitable economic opportunities for older job seekers, especially those living in historically underserved communities. Unlike other conferences, the Equity Summit is exclusively focused on advancing the workforce aspirations of older workers through solutions to systemic ageism, racism, and sexism.

Julia’s remarkable contributions will take center stage during Equity Summit 2023. As the Chief Economist at ZipRecruiter, her insights have illuminated crucial aspects of the labor market as they relate to traditionally untapped job seekers. She has helped both employers and job seekers navigate the evolving work landscape, with an eye toward equitable solutions. Her influence has been recognized by esteemed national media outlets such as the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and NPR. Julia’s expertise extends to publications like Barron’s, and her active participation in the Forbes Human Resources Council.

“We are privileged to recognize Julia Pollak for her outstanding contributions to the field of economics, and her unwavering dedication to advancing the cause of equitable economic opportunities,” said Gary A. officer, Founder & CEO at CWI Labs. “Julia’s work exemplifies the spirit of the Innovation & Thought Leadership Award, and we are honored to present this esteemed accolade to her.”

Join us on October 17th  to celebrate Julia’s remarkable achievements and watch her deliver the Equity Summit 2023 afternoon keynote address.
