Recruitment is no longer just about securing an offer acceptance—it's about keeping candidates engaged and excited as they prepare for their start date.

This means that organizations must rethink their post-offer communication strategies to reduce the rate of reneges and build strong connections with future hires.

Catching students’ attention, getting them interested in your company, and keeping them engaged are key concerns of many campus recruitment teams.

Despite comprising almost 18% of the U.S. workforce, Hispanic and Latinx professionals only make up around 6% of software engineering and computer scientist roles. With Hispanic and Latinx individuals vastly underrepresented in tech, it’s essential for employers to develop strategies to connect with these candidates at the entry-level. One way employers can increase representation in this field is by forming relationships with Hispanic-Serving Institutions (HSIs), or colleges with 25% or more Hispanic and Latinx students, and emerging HSIs, schools with 15% to 24% Hispanic and Latinx population. HSIs house more than two-thirds of all Hispanic and Latinx students in the country, and many of them have extremely strong Computer Science programs.
