Hire for Inclusivity Over
Speed
According to inbound recruiting
experts Datapeople, recruiting
has historically been a game of
speed because hiring efforts tend
to start after a need is already
there.
Hiring for speed can get in
the way of inclusive hiring
and diversity, equity, and
inclusion efforts.
These hiring processes can
fail or take a long time
because of issues with the
job post.
With a clean filter, hiring
teams invite qualified job
seekers from all
backgrounds to apply.
With a dirty filter, hiring teams
invite unqualified job seekers
from a limited number of
backgrounds to apply.
Many factors can diminish
inclusive hiring efforts, not
least of which is the hiring
process itself.
If time to fill is the top KPI for
hiring teams, inclusivity will
naturally take a back seat
whenever the hiring team is in
a rush.
If organizations make
inclusive hiring the top KPI,
recruiters won't feel the same
pressure to hire someone as
fast as possible.
Hiring teams should focus
on inclusive hiring first,
then speed.
A top KPI of inclusive hiring
will ease recruiters' minds
and help an organization
meet its long-term goals.
