- Training to help eliminate unconscious bias provided to all Talent Managers and Executive Recruiters through a partnership with LinkedIn Learning
- Review all job descriptions to ensure inclusive language is prominent
- Standardization of our interview processes with structured behavioral interview questions for all roles
