Initiative description
This initiative aspires to make Indiana University’s IT workforce more inclusive, diverse, and welcoming to all people by connecting with community organization to share out IU IT job postings with their members. These organizations have the flexibility of sharing these job postings however they see fit: via email with their community, in a community newsletter, via printout on a posting board, etc.
Initiative's ultimate goal
Ideally, if enough organizations share these job postings with their diverse and varied communities, we will eventually start to see a more diverse workforce in IU’s IT areas. We are starting locally, but in the future, we plan to expand the reach of this initiative across the state and the nation, with the hopes of bringing in folks from all over to work at a more welcoming and inclusive IU IT workforce.
