Anti-Racism for Leaders: Diversity-Focused Recruitment

Description

Diversity in hiring practices is a newer focus for many teams. This doesn't mean hiring to meet a diversity quota, but embracing the strengths and qualities that a truly diverse team can bring to an organization. This perspective requires a shift in how many companies view diversity and how they execute their hiring practices. In this course, we'll talk about how to change the language in your job postings to be more inclusive and less gender-specific. We'll discuss sharing a diversity statement along with diversity metrics and any benefits that are inclusive to all. We'll talk about outreach and where to post positions to maximize your diversity efforts. Lastly, we'll cover the job application, and some changes many companies are making to avoid unconscious bias when qualifying their applicants.
