Strategically Recruiting Faculty and Staff

Presented by Crystal Smith, Amy Guy, Eva Martinez, Brigid Hinterberger

Designing multi-faceted, active recruiting strategies for your department is essential for successful talent acquisition and fostering an environment of diversity, equity, and inclusion. Active recruiting transcends the traditional assumption that candidates are actively seeking open positions and instead focuses on proactive engagement with a diverse range of exceptional candidates.

Through forging individual connections, we empower talents from all backgrounds, fostering a vibrant and inclusive community. Departments who engage in year-round, ongoing recruitment strategies have the potential to make a significant impact. By maintaining continuous recruitment efforts, we can generate robust, diverse applicant pools.

In this workshop presentation, you will learn about inclusive and best practices and have the opportunity to develop an ongoing, comprehensive recruitment plan for your unit or department that strategically promotes active recruitment practices at every opportunity (even when searches are not currently happening).

By embracing this proactive approach, you contribute to a culture of inclusivity and set the foundation for a thriving and diverse workforce.
