With this underrepresentation, it’s essential for companies hiring for science, technology, and engineering roles to craft strategies to diversify their pipeline and increase representation within their teams. While there are several ways to improve the diversity of your pipeline at the entry-level – from partnering with niche organizations to sourcing – one surefire way is to visit campuses with higher populations of underrepresented groups.

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.
