D.E.I. Certified Corporate Recruiter
Nicole Sayago
“I recall diversity being described as a “rich tapestry” of human identity while studying Dr. Maya Angelou in college. Her sentiments have continued to resonate with me, inspiring a passion for continuous learning and growth within the realm of diversity, equity, and inclusion. Companies and organizations cannot grow without diversity, individuals do not have access to opportunities without equity, and employees are unsuccessful with their companies and organizations without inclusiveness. I am extremely grateful to be in a role which directly impacts the workforce in becoming more representative of the population in our society. Much of diversity recruiting happens during the candidate research phase which requires deep-dive research into US demographics, organizations and affiliations that have diverse memberships, as well as assessing for skills and experience matching along the way.”
Partnership
people3
Our partnership with people3 – a benefit corporation that provides diversity and inclusion training, workshops, and inclusion-centered consulting – has been integral to our growing foundation of DEI practices.
