The goal of inclusive hiring is to create a work culture that values diversity and promotes equal opportunities for all. This will result in a more innovative, creative and engaged teams.

Did you know that our brain receive over 11 million pieces of information from the world around us, but we can only consciously process 40 pieces of information at a given time?

However, our unconscious brain process much more information. It does so by using a series of mental shortcuts and filters, based on past experiences, cultural and societal norms, and personal beliefs—also known as unconscious bias.

Inclusive Hiring Behaviours

Bias interrupters are practices that can help us to interrupt unconscious biases and be more consciously inclusive. For all of us, being aware and taking action to interrupt our biases will help create better inclusive hiring decisions.

Inclusive hiring ensures that conscious inclusion is embedded in the entire hiring lifecycle from job description to CV review to post interview feedbacks, including accessibility. For the purpose of this guide, we have focused on the 3 stages of CV Review, Interview and Post Interview discussions.
