Meet the non-profit program helping young people from underserved communities land tech jobs at places like Bank of America

Join BI PrimeNPower is a non-profit organization that trains military veterans and young adults in underserved communities for careers in technology.

Having left high school at 17 and with no college education, Ferreira's initial understanding of white-collar jobs came mostly from television shows like. It wasn't that Ferreira had a tough time believing she'd ever work in finance. It wasn't even a consideration. Nerves aside, Ferreira excelled, and enjoyed, her new role. She was offered work as a contractor after her internship ended, and then eventually a full-time position working with the commodity trading floor.Founded in 1999, NPower runs programs out of eight regions in the US and Canada, serving roughly 1,400 students annually, Bertina Ceccarelli, CEO of NPower, told Business Insider.

Bank of America, in particular, has been a strong supporter of the organization, hiring 63 students out of NPower's New York program, with employees also volunteering over 4,600 hours of their time through activities such as guest lectures. "What I've found you get back in return is an incredible amount of loyalty and drive and that these people will run through walls for you. And then they will go on to have astonishing careers," Reilly said.

"The resource that everybody is now grappling with is that of data. You speak to anybody at any large corporation they'll tell you, 'I don't lack for data. I lack for insight. If only I could draw more insight from the data that I've got, I could serve my clients better," Reilly said.
