The Seattle office of WorkplaceDiversity knows that the city is home to some of the country’s leading higher education institutes, including the University of Washington, Seattle University, Seattle Pacific University, the Cornish College of the Arts, and more. What the diversity hiring recruitment firm also knows is that while Seattle is home to a diverse and thriving body of college students, the same cannot be said of its teaching and research faculties, which is why they are proud to now be assisting colleges and universities to attract and keep diverse talent.

As a recent study by Pew Research Center revealed, 76% of post-secondary faculty members in the US are still white, despite the fact that only 55% of undergraduate students are white. WorkplaceDiversity believes these statistics showcase that, while universities often hold diversity as a value, they are still falling short of enacting it—notwithstanding the further barriers that are faced by women, individuals with disabilities, LGBTQ individuals, veterans, and people with intersectional identities.

As such, with their new diversity hiring service for higher education institutes in Seattle, they hope to begin rectifying this imbalance. In addition to helping colleges and universities to meet their legal requirements, they also believe that thoughtful diversity hiring is essential to the prosperity and growth of any academic institute, and will create new opportunities for colleges at both the domestic and international level.

WorkplaceDiversity will advertise any open position on their interconnected hub of diversity-focused job board sites, including WorkplaceDiversity.com, HispanicDiversity.com, VeteransConnect.com, LGBTConnect.com, DisabilityConnect.com, OutandEqual.com, AllDiversity.com, WomensJobCenter.com, LatinXJobs.com and BlackJobCenter.com. All of these platforms attract significant traffic from skilled candidates looking for a welcoming and diverse environment.

WorkplaceDiversity has different recruitment packages available to colleges and universities, with standard features including featured job posts, spotlighted company profiles, and more.

WorkplaceDiversity is one of the US’ most comprehensive and fastest-growing online recruitment platforms for diversity hiring.

A spokesperson for the online recruiters said, “Reach out to our sales team to learn more about who we are and how we can help you towards your diversity recruiting goals. We offer annual sponsorships, custom packages, industry pricing, and more.”
