Using The "I" In D&I To Attract & Retain Top Talent

About this session

In order to attract and retain top talent, hiring leaders need to go where the diverse candidates are, know exactly what these over-messaged candidates want, and execute! Learn how you can take your organization’s D&I strategy to the next level in this hour-long live Q&A session with PowerToFly’s own Dionna Smith-Keels!

You asked, she’s answering:

  • How can I ensure the interview process is designed to be inclusive?
  • What does active vs. passive nurturing of pipeline mean? Can you give an example of active and passive candidate nurturing methods?
  • Isn't it more than just a diversity hiring campaign? Shouldn't companies focus as much, if not more, on inclusion? Also, shouldn't a company show they're in it for the long haul by being in the URM community?
