Ensuring an effective hiring process for diverse candidates

Your Talent Acquisition Partner can provide guidance on topics such as salary negotiation, delayed start dates, non-traditional work schedules, and other variables that may impact diverse candidates differently during the offer stage.

Below are some considerations when determining which candidate you choose to hire:

• Reflect on the current composition of your staff and department. What perspectives are missing from your team? Does your workforce reflect the community you are serving?
• Have you ensured you generated a diverse pool at the beginning of the search process?

Additionally, you should be aware of and speak to the many professional development opportunities available for employees at UC Davis, as well as the trainings, Resource Groups, and other opportunities for diverse staff at UC Davis.
