In our global society, most successful companies work to enhance their team structure, overall talent pool as well as meet DEI initiatives by finding diverse candidates. hireEZ’s diversity sourcing and hiring give companies the opportunity to find the optimal candidates from a variety of underrepresented groups and underserved communities that will give their companies the needed boost to succeed by allowing employee productivity and engagement.
How Do These Features Fit Into My Workflow?
#1: Run a Search for Diverse Candidates for Comparison
When an AI sourcing task is created, you can apply the Diversity filter from the start, or you may choose to copy the search to another project and modify the Diversity filter from there so that you can have multiple searches running alongside each other to compare. This will allow you to broaden the reach of your search as you source different candidate personas.

Multiple diversity filters can be used in one search by using our AND/OR boolean options. For example, users can search for African American women or even Hispanics of veteran status by applying the AND logic to any 2 diverse groups.
#2: Understanding the Market: Building a Diversity Insights Report
Building a diversity-focused insights report is another great way to start a project as it gives you the opportunity to understand and set expectations around the diverse candidates that exist within any given talent pool. You can see the data behind the total number of candidates (and percentage of candidates) within each underrepresented group for any given search criteria (for example, for a specific skill-set, company, or industry).
As needed you can apply additional diversity filter requirements to the Insights report. You may click on the hyperlinked bars to view candidates under each category.


At any point, you can start an AI sourcing task from the Insights tab to see the candidate profiles represented in the report and continue your hiring process from there.
You can also run an Insights report from any given project. If, for example, you want to look at the overall breakdown of diversity candidates available for a specific project, you can go to the Insights section in the AI sourcing panel by clicking Insights.

Or click on Insights when you reach the Search Results or Pipeline stages.


#3: Running Diversity Pipeline Analytics Reports
On the Reports page, you have the ability to view detailed metrics for your diversity pipeline in hireEZ as a whole as well as for specific underrepresented groups. This will include how many candidates were sourced, qualified, and engaged at the top of the funnel so that you have the analytics and insights you need to meet your DEI initiative goals.
Like the other reports in this tab, there are a couple of filter options, including Date Range, Group of users, Diversity categories, and Projects so that you can customize your report and look at the data that's relevant to you.
If you hover over any of the colored bars in the graph, you will be able to see what percentage of the candidates for this specific underrepresented group are, for example, in the qualified pipeline stage. From here you can see where there may be roadblocks in terms of how diverse candidates are able to progress through the pipeline as a whole.
These analytics can also be exported as a CSV document.
