Inclusive Recruitment
More than 80% of UK businesses are struggling to recruit right now. And yet we know that 76% of candidates consider diversity and inclusion to be an important fact in their choice of employer, and 39% won’t even apply for a role if they don’t consider the organisation to be inclusive.
If you’re looking to recruit new staff, you need to be thinking about your inclusion strategy if you want to attract the best talent. And keep the talent you have – inclusion increases staff retention by 50%!
Not only that, but recruiting diverse teams makes sense. After all, diverse and inclusive teams are more productive, engaged, innovative, successful and profitable than their competitors.
So how can you attract and engage with a wider variety of candidates, mitigate the impact of unconscious bias on the recruitment process, and set your new hires up with the best chance of success? This interactive training session will show you how.
Who is this course for?
This training is ideally suited to those with some basic understanding of the broader concepts of diversity and inclusion, therefore we recommend taking our Introductory Courses before moving on to Inclusive Recruitment.
This session is designed for those who are actively involved in the recruitment process.
