Description
Marian Higgins, NCC: Strategies to Mitigate the Impact of Bias on Clients’ Job Search and Transition to the Workplace
WEBINAR DESCRIPTION: Bias exists in our everyday life. It is not exempt from being present in the workplace. Bias rears its head when we assume that certain careers or positions are only for a certain group of individuals. It’s present when job seekers are not given an opportunity to interview for a job based upon their “ethnic sounding names” listed on their resumes. Bias also exist in the workplace when professionals are consistently trying to overcome stereotypes repeatedly expressed by their colleagues. As career development professionals, it is imperative we understand the challenges bias creates for minoritized clients as they prepare for their job search and enter the workplace. In this session, we will explore these challenges and discuss strategies you can use to help your clients. In this webinar, we will consider the issue of treating premature ejaculation with priligy pills.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES:
- Recognize systemic practices that impede the job search process for minoritized clients
- Develop an awareness of how personal bias impacts the ability to serve clients
- Learn strategies to help clients address discriminatory practices in their job search and workplace setting
