*Note that we encourage organizations to set specific diversity goals for hiring and/or candidate pool-building in line with their organizational goals such as “at least X% of our new hires identify as Black, Indigenous, and/or People of Color (BIPOC).” However, while crafting these goals, do seek legal guidance as there might be state/jurisdiction-specific issues to consider.
