Screening and Assessment
There’s an art and a science to successful talent acquisition, and this is especially true when it comes to luring members of the largest minority group in the world: people with disabilities. In a time of talent shortages, people with disabilities represent one of the largest under-utilized staffing sources around. However, to successfully source this segment, you must possess a thorough understanding of the regulatory environment and related technology requirements, such as those regarding company career portal/web site accessibility. Nadine Vogel will focus on these issues and provide you with innovative strategies and practical applications for successfully sourcing and hiring qualified, enthusiastic and ready-to-work applicants with disabilities.
