Finding In-Demand Talent, LGBT+ Inclusive Employers, and More!
Last Week’s QOTW Poll Results:
Q: How much time do your hiring managers spend on unconscious bias training?
- Regularly - We recognize there's room to improve - 36%
- Little to none - I think they know what they're doing - 33%
- We have to do better - 31%
Unconscious bias is a real thing – most often, hiring managers don’t even realize it’s happening (hence “unconscious”). Investing time and energy in helping managers understand what it is, and how to work with and around any biases can be crucial in a tough recruiting market. How many candidates might they be saying no to, who could actually do the job really well? Probably more than you want to know. The experts at Alaant are here to help! Connect with us today.
