Diversity hiring, (let’s even start from there) what does all that mean? Hold that thought, Dear Candidate.
Now, I carried out a little online research to find out how this all started and interestingly, the topic of workplace diversity started as far back as the second world war.
Now history has it that women had to take up active roles in the workplace because of the heavy involvement of men in the military.
Fast forward to today, the topic of diversity has evolved in different ways.
Let’s go back to the question I asked dear candidate, when hired for a role, sometimes you might be tempted to believe that you were hired to fill a diversity quota particularly because of all the attention that is getting.
Now if you find yourself bothered about something like this, don’t go anyway because today’s podcast is really dedicated to you.
Let's dive in, shall we?
