At Salesforce, untapped talent<\/a> is defined as young people from underserved and underrepresented communities who may be unaware of or lack access to the career possibilities that exist for them. These individuals are full of potential, intelligence, and drive \u2014 a key reason businesses must be deliberate about opening doors for them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
