Hiring Strategy

Project details

What we need
  • Recommendations on active and passive recruiting and proper channels to pursue candidates
  • Guidelines for hiring process, including order and number of interview rounds, reference checks, and general best practices for an inclusive interview
  • Effective interviewing techniques and clear, consistent standards for evaluating candidates
  • Tips for negotiating details such as compensation package and title
Additional details

The California Film Institute is seeking assistance with a review of recruitment and hiring practices with the specific objective of ensuring greater diversity, equity, and inclusion in hiring and employment.

What we have in place
  • We currently have sample hiring and recruitment documents, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have a draft racial justice/DEI plan, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $3,836 , allowing us to focus our attention on obtaining and hiring diverse candidates that are set up for success in their positions.

We are taking steps to ensure that the California Film Institute is a safe and equitable space for staff members, filmmakers and audiences alike. This includes the incorporation of inclusivity, diversity and accessibility measures into the organization's business plan and the introduction of tangible KPIs to hold ourselves accountable for our commitment to serve and engage diverse audiences through our work and hire diverse employees who reflect the composition of SF Bay Area communities.
