The bias and barriers to employment faced by people who are underrepresented are often unrelated to their ability to do the job. These individuals have the skills and experience, and the desire to work. Too often they are overlooked or screened out during the hiring process, simply because of their identity, background, and personal history.
It is imperative that employers challenge the status quo of their hiring practices and philosophy to mitigate bias and remove barriers to meaningful employment. This requires a shift in mindset, introspection, letting go of the fear of getting things wrong and accepting that you don’t have all the answers.
