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?

Then what should be the answer to this question ?

They sometimes ask me for help with stuff, but I’m just getting annoyed at this point. Can I just say “no” since they’re about to be a mid/senior associate who should know all of this?

Hey new members! Welcome 🤗. How do you get into DEI? Share your experience.

Got written up by my admin for sending a PSA to teachers to call a trans student by their correct name and pronouns. Says I “didn’t follow the chain of command for Title IX issues.” For context I teach in the south and my admin says they legally “don’t recognize transgenders.” Any advice?

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)

Welcome all! Feel free to share best practices and engage in DEI discourse.
