Diversity and Inclusion
“Diversity and Inclusion is a business strategy, not an HR program”

The traditional methods of dealing with D&I in the workplace focus on diversity trainings and grievance systems. The main problem is that they are treating the effects and not looking into the causes. D&I are strategic issues that require a more holistic approach if they are to be dealt with effectively.
The 9 Dimensions of Diversity
Age
Gender
Religion
Sexual Orientation
Race
Ethnicity
Class
Disability
Nationality
D&I is broken. The fight for diversity begins with the recruiting process.
Yet hiring processes still rely heavily on selection of candidates through resumes.
Reading a resume unavoidably leads to unconscious bias.
Here is how Bryq can help you improve your D&I efforts:
Objectively define job requirements
You no longer need to guess which assessment makes sense and what results you are looking for. Bryq comes with a database of job profiles for hundreds of roles – based on proven Organization Psychology theories and not simply on intuition.
Blindly screen candidates
Unconscious bias begins with resume screening. Stop trying to read between resume lines to find the right fit and assess candidates objectively on required skills and traits.
Shortlist based on fit
Bryq ranks candidates based on how well they performed in the objective assessment and how well they fit the requirements of the role – with absolutely no impact from their ethnicity, gender, name, education, age, personal interests or any other factor.
Perform objective, standardized, behavioral interviews
Traditional, unstructured, interviews have been proven to be biased and ineffective. Bryq’s detailed reports and interview guides help you understand the strengths and weaknesses of each candidate allowing for structured interviews along the hiring stages.
Always find the right candidate, even with volume hiring
It doesn’t matter if you have sourced 10 or 1,000 candidates for a position – Bryq makes it equally easy to find the right one by empowering you to:
• Engage candidates with a 20-minute interactive assessment
• Shortlist candidates based on fit for the role
• Uncover hidden talent
• Reduce time to hire
