Talent Board (the CandEs), a non-profit organization focused on the elevation and promotion of a quality candidate experience through its annual recruiting and hiring industry benchmark research, today announced its upcoming virtual conference Creating and Sustaining an Inclusive Candidate Experience – Why DEI Strategies and Tactics Are Critical to Competitive Recruiting and Hiring Today.
This Talent Board virtual conference will include keynote sessions from Melissa Majors and Dr. Shirley Davis.
Recruiting and hiring have never been more competitive. Potential job candidates want more from their jobs – more money, flexibility, development opportunities – and more belonging. This includes external and internal candidates alike. For companies that have been and are improving their diversity, equity, and inclusion strategies and tactics, this adds a layer of competitive advantage to a better candidate experience and important potential hires they may have missed otherwise.
According to the Talent Board's latest candidate experience benchmark research, the top recruitment marketing content for women and people of color included information about diversity & inclusion initiatives, company culture, and why people want to work there. This virtual conference will cover these topics and more and is free to attend. Each half-day is filled with inspirational keynote speakers, informative recruiting and hiring sessions, networking opportunities, and giveaways.
"The candidate market is more competitive than ever and providing an inclusive candidate experience is definitely a differentiator worldwide – from pre-application to onboarding," said Kevin Grossman, Talent Board president, and event organizer. “Everyone at an organization is responsible for creating a culture of belonging for their candidates and employees, and we look forward to hearing about all these themes and more come June 15-16."
The CandE virtual conference keynote speakers and sessions include:

Melissa Majors Consulting
Keynote: The 7 Simple Habits of Inclusive Teams
“I am beyond thrilled to serve as keynote speaker at the upcoming June virtual conference Creating and Sustaining an Inclusive Candidate Experience – Why DEI Strategies and Tactics Are Critical to Competitive Recruiting and Hiring Today,” said Melissa Majors, CEO of Melissa Majors Consulting and author of The 7 Simple Habits of Inclusive Teams. “Inclusion is much more than a moral obligation; it’s a performance accelerator and vital retention strategy. Yet, many leaders perceive inclusion as an optional soft skill, so they miss out on the business advantage of operationalizing inclusion into core processes, like recruiting and hiring. I look forward to joining the Talent Board and conducting a guilt-free, actionable examination of the most inclusive leaders and companies' tactics, best practices, and habits.”
