Inclusive hiring practice
Every candidate is assessed against the requirements of the role and nothing else, regardless of background, ethnicity, gender or age. Where a client’s process introduces bias, we say so.
Diversity and inclusion.
Empire Resource Group is a Canadian firm, and inclusion is something we would rather show in how a search is run than declare in a paragraph.
Empire Resource Group is wholly owned by Craig MacGregor, its President, who is a visible minority.
The rest of this page is conduct: three commitments you can hold us to. If any of it matters in your vendor qualification, ask and we will answer specifically.
What we commit to
Three things, not a statement of values.
A search that reaches further than the obvious
Job postings travel through the networks that already exist, and people from underrepresented groups are often outside them. Direct search starts from research instead, and reaches whoever the research finds.
Cultural add, not cultural fit
“Fit” too often means hiring the same person again. We push clients to ask what a candidate adds that the team does not already have, which is a harder question and a better one.
