Every organization knows that talent makes the difference when it comes to how well it can execute on its overall mission and goals. To have the best talent, companies have to be able to attract individuals from all backgrounds. A diverse workforce is imperative to an organization’s success because diversity brings different perspectives, spurs innovation, enhances problem-solving and introduces new skills and markets. The hiring process has many components: outreach, recruitment, screening, interviewing, decision-making and following-up with accepted candidates. This dynamic video course, Fair and Effective Interviewing for Diversity and Inclusion by Vernā Myers, teaches skills for interviewing – an important aspect of an inclusive hiring process that is sometimes overlooked.
This video is designed to be used for interviewers of all levels for all job categories and positions. In the video, Vernā explains three key barriers to fair and effective interviewing across difference: our cultural diversity lens; discomfort with difference; and stereotypes and biases. Using stories, examples and humor, Vernā tells viewers how to recognize and overcome these barriers and shares concrete tips interviewers can use to ensure that they are supporting diversity and inclusion in their organizations and not missing or misjudging talent. Included in the course are downloadable PDF Handouts: Tips for Fair and Effective Interviewing and Steps to Becoming a More Fair and Effective Interviewer.
