In this webinar we will discuss why every recruiter needs to be a diversity recruiter.

We will speak about the benefits to the business when we ensure early hires aren’t rushed and the impact to the business when you don’t build a diverse workforce from the beginning.

We will delve into how to influence stakeholders and C-Suite during periods of growth when speed is requested during hiring and how to ensure a fair process.

What you will get from this session:

* An understanding of how to set up a diversity hiring strategy that is fit for scale

* An overview of how building diverse TA teams first can support ensuring that diverse candidates feel comfortable from the get-go during the process

* Insights into the benefits of focusing on building an inclusive environment for diverse employees to reduce attrition
