Transparency in Recruiting
This is a call to action for transparency around minimally acceptable and unacceptable practices that are inaccessible or simply fail to inform each of the stakeholders responsible for hiring and managing. We hope to influence our colleagues and peers who might begin to adopt more effective, data-informed transparency practices.
Pay Transparency
Federal, state, and local governments (as well as many other public institutions and private organizations) are all weighing in on Pay Transparency driven by decades of growing social, economic, and political concerns about pay disparities with respect to gender, race, and other characteristics that aren’t relevant to whether an individual can and will do the job.
Noticeably absent is the voice of those of us who actually make our career in hiring. We believe it is time that the voice of the Talent Acquisition Industry be heard.
