Does anyone have tips on preparing for DEI interviews? I have looked at DEI behavioral questions online. Not sure what else I can do.

Thank you for your help!

Do you have any stories from your own life that have shaped your understanding of the issues?

Of course your lived experience isn't the same as others, which is the point. Those stories are what will make your response to the question unique, authentic, and memorable.

What other option do you have? Some sort of canned statement on the importance of DEI? Facts and figures from some articles?

I had a first round phone interview for a big company and they asked me to share one DEI intiative I have spearheaded or been apart of.

Was it a DEI role?

There is an opportunity that I’m currently interviewing for that is very interesting to me. I’m interviewing two other places but I’m not responding to LinkedIn emails for other positions.

On one hand I don’t want to waste time prepping for all positions and rather put that time only for the ones that I have going on, on the other hand I feel like what is that falls through. Wondering if I’m making the right choice

HI 👋 everyone, I could use your help! I’m trying to get a better sense of the size of the addressable market for one software language versus another, and one approach I was thinking of was total aggregate number of job listings for developers with each skill.

Does anyone here know what tools/sites might be able to best approximate that, or another approach to get the same information? Thank you so much for any help you can provide!

Interviewing soon with EY for a senior role (TD FSO). I originally applied for their core practice but the recruiter convinced me that since I’m coming from a financial services audit background, I’d be better suited for their FSO practice. Assuming I get the job, would exit opportunities be worse if I am in FSO instead of the core group? Thanks!

Could use some help with an awkward dynamic.

My Dept has been tapped to help another dept promote a DEI study. The client dept has hired a consultant in this area. The challenges I see with this consultant's work style:

-dominating conversations
-micromanaging things outside her area
-steering things toward her own promotion over our company's agenda
-people in my dept (mostly white) are visibly uncomfortable and reluctant to interrupt or contradict her (black woman)

(Cont'd)

Does anyone have any experiences they feel comfortable sharing where DEI was an integral part of the company instead of an after thought/"trending" initiative?
