Recognize that this is not a hurdle we can tackle overnight. What can we as a division do to remove barriers for more outreach in our job postings? Recognize that this IS a hurdle we need to tackle.
Remove the financial barrier to posting on diversity related professional organizations The division will fund the cost for this. Rasool has the fund code to use to post to relevant posting boards This is to be used across all functional job codes - and will let us do broader searches more consistently Scientific staff, SEAs, Postdocs, operations/administrative staff, etc. Introduce our recruiter to the Division set expectations for clear, transparent and equitable processes What can we do now?
In summary We know this isn t an immediate fix. But it is a start in the right direction Here is our ask of you - utilize existing pipelines more effectively Please think about how we can - establish new or strengthen existing pipelines Your ideas can help!
Final thoughts Special thanks to the Sapana Kanakia for her years of service as our former recruiter. Also, to Rasool Yousufzai, our new recruiter, for partnering with us on this new initiative. If you have any feedback or questions (or ideas!), please contact us at NSD-IDEA-Council@lbl.gov
