The Importance of a Diverse Workforce
Why is a diverse workforce important?
In a recent survey conducted by Handshake, a majority of respondents shared that they would not apply to a job at a company that lacked diversity.* A diverse workforce offers a variety of perspectives, improved customer service, and more successful employee recruitment and retention.
