Why sponsors partner with Alto

Placements succeed when the job, the housing and the support on the ground are right before participants arrive. Alto HR was founded by former big-box retail operators, so we know which store roles fit the program and how to prepare a store to host.

  • Roles checked first

    Every role and schedule is reviewed against program rules before we offer it.

  • Housing and transport

    Arranged before arrival, so participants can get to work without a car.

  • A local team

    Offices in Miramar Beach and Niceville, close to where participants live and work.

  • No fees to participants

    Alto never charges participants a fee, and never holds their documents.

What we ask of partners

  • Designation by the U.S. Department of State for the program category
  • Your requirements for host employers, in writing
  • A clear contact for participant welfare during the season
