The effects of racialized culture in recruiting diverse talent

This project focuses on the visible minorities with higher education or work skills (e.g., international graduates or skilled workers immigrants) and investigates the barriers for these immigrants to find a job at their level of skill and education. More specifically, this research seeks to understand how much racialized culture plays a part in recruiting diverse talent. There will be no limitation in terms of the industries of the employers in our sample population. For our sample population, we focus on and include as many employers as possible from the Windsor area. However, if we do not have enough responses or participants, we will broaden the project’s geographical scope to GTA, Ontario, and Canada-wide. In our research, we will use a mixed methodology, including quantitative (Survey) and qualitative (such as semi-structured or in-depth interviews and/or a focus group) methods. Partner organization will have access to the results and the reports of the research. They also
will use the YouTube presentation/podcast for their potential clients or future workshops.
