How can I increase the diversity of candidates, particularly for leadership-level roles? I have seen the 3% conference and posted positions with them, are there other helpful resources?

Work with HR to get a more candidates that are diverse in race, gender, ethnicity, etc. instead of the usual white male... there are many qualified candidates out there whose resumes don’t get past screening because their names don’t sound white. Do not accept the excuse of, “ there aren’t enough qualified candidates who are also diverse” ... that is NOT TRUE... and make sure you are not hiring a token candidate... once hired, give this person the opportunities they deserve, support them, be their advocate.

Suggestion, use your company’s Twitter/Instagram:

‘XYZ wants to level the field, looking for people of color to apply/send in your books. Reply with your URL/Role/City/full time or freelance.’

Then you have a list of people/books to check out.
Boom.

Consider diverse candidates for roles that wouldn't ordinarily be staffed with diverse leaders.

Ignore a candidate s LinkedIn until looking at their portfolio. Letting their work speak for them before their profile picture helps.

And I hear the gradientgroup.com is supposed to be good for posting for diverse leaders.

Start with the sources. Too many people are focusing on choosing diverse talent from what’s already coming in, but the truth is what we even view as “talented” and “right fit” is broken. I think the fact that most agencies recruit only from hot ad schools or hot shops already puts the most diverse talent at a disadvantage. I say hot shops too, because they often only look at talent that made its way to renowned creative schools which are incredibly expensive and a massive barrier.

Are you hiring??

Yes!

Gay man who works in a large org that is big on diversity and inclusion efforts. I’d say about 50-60% of people (at all levels, across all age groups and races) list their gender pronouns in email signature. I list mine because I see it as a way to show support for colleagues who may not be cisgender. If anyone else works in the same type of environment, do you infer anything about colleagues who choose not to list their gender pronouns? (such as they are homo/trans phobic?)
