The most successful organizations at recruiting are those that build connections with potential talent at all times, while cultivating cultures of equity and inclusion to ensure that their talent recruitment, development, and retention practices won’t lead them to miss out on talent from groups that are marginalized in our community. This holistic approach to talent acquisition requires concrete skills and strategies, and the Guide to Recruiting and Hiring from CareerHub will help hiring managers understand and practice them.

The Guide covers topics including the following (and more):

Why and how to build cultures of equity and inclusion

Pitfalls and possibilities when defining a role

How to create effective job descriptions and announcements

How to build a talent pool, when hiring and when not yet hiring

Why structure is critical for excellence and equity

What kind of interview questions elicit the most valuable responses

Why job simulations can be more predictive than interviews
