There could be a number of challenges that diversity hiring recruiters face today. Here I have for you 3 major ones:
Challenge 1: Sourcing
Recruiters frequently claim that there is insufficient talent from underrepresented groups in talent pools. However, the evidence reveals that this is not the case. Women outnumber males in terms of college and graduate degree attainment.
Challenge 2: Selection
Some recruiters have little trouble bringing diverse prospects into their recruitment process; the problem is that they can't keep them there long enough – they leave before they get an offer.
If a recruiter has a disproportionate amount of underrepresented prospects leave after being interviewed, their interviewers are likely biased.
Challenge 3: Attraction
Even if your recruiting agency employs an inclusive sourcing strategy and evaluation procedure and you have a varied pool of candidates in the interview stage, many of these prospects may decline job offers.
Candidates can tell whether your client's corporation is devoted to diversity and inclusion; it must be a true element of their corporate culture.
And you must ensure that you are not just informing applicants about their projects but that they are also aware of them at every point of contact with the company.
There you go! Understanding these challenges is the first step to eliminating them. Hope this answers your question!
