CHICAGO, Nov. 30, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- iHispano.com and Fox News Latino will partner in offering a professional online community designed to provide news of special interest to Hispanic professionals, and open doors to jobs at leading American companies that specifically seek to build a diverse workforce.

Fox News Latino content is now available through the iHispano.com home page at http://www.ihispano.com/. This will provide access to iHispano's job listings and a menu of free career services.

Founded by social entrepreneurs who care deeply about equal opportunity and economic empowerment, iHispano.com has been attracting thousands of senior professionals who desire to share their expertise with others who may need guidance in polishing their career skills. The founders saw a partnership with Fox News Latino as an ideal vehicle for connecting Latino professionals with jobs at top American companies as well as with a caring and likeminded community of peers and mentors during a tough economy.

"Wall Street may have seen an uptick in the past two years, but as Americans continue to feel the sting of the recession, they need access to the advanced education and career skills necessary to land the jobs that will secure their future," said iHispano Chief Executive Officer Rudy Martinez. "We are proud of the vision we share with Fox News Latino for building an online community that is dedicated to investing in the diverse workforce of the future," said Martinez.
