We salute the drive, energy and perseverance that make our diversity candidates unique, valuable, successful, and second to none. We marvel at and appreciate how they give back to the community and to each other, how they mentor aspiring executives, and share their knowledge, expertise, and experience by their networking.
Diverse Workplace assists diversity professionals by:
- marketing them directly to client companies
- advancing their careers by serving as a resource and guide in their networking activities
- sharing information on job campaigning issues and current market information
We get to know our candidates. The energy that arises when we share ideas with each other creates growth and vitality. We forge lasting relationships and friendships with our candidates. We are still in contact with candidates that we met in the 1970’s. We understand that we are not going to place every candidate with one of our client companies but our long standing goals have been and remain to build a long time relationship and to assist every candidate in his or her job campaign.
SOME OF OUR CANDIDATE SERVICES
Diverse Workplace is a networking resource for diversity professionals. Every time we place a diversity candidate in a new position, and whenever we learn of a diversity professional who has taken a new position, we let our networks know so that they can add resources to their own networks.
Pipeline, a bi-monthly E-letter sent to over 150 Directors of Staffing throughout the country, highlights the experience and objectives of diversity candidates who are currently developing new opportunities. The two latest issues are published on this website.
We provide relevant and useful information about opportunities, concerns, issues, job campaign strategies, etc. in our monthly E-newsletter and in our Blog, Beyond Diversity.

“At workshops, talks, and meetings, I am often asked, ‘What do they (diversity candidates) really want?’ The simple, truthful, honest answer is, ‘We all want the same things in our job and from our employers. Simply stated, An equal shot at the American Dream. What does equal mean? In 1954, Thurgood Marshall was a civil rights lawyer arguing Brown vs. the Board of Education, the case that ended the separate but equal system of racial segregation. Asked by Justice Felix Frankfurter during the argument what he meant by equal, Mr. Marshall replied, ‘Equal means getting the same thing, at the same time, and in the same place.’”
