Katherine McCord – Flipping The Script On Bias In Your Job Search

Overview of topic:

Bias is everywhere in the job search and hiring processes. Often, it is unconscious, but that does not make it any less damaging.

In this presentation, we will walk through the various types of biases, where they are likely to show, and best of all… HOW TO OVERCOME THEM!!

This will not be a “be quiet and listen” presentation, so be ready to jump in, share ideas, and answer questions.

Speaker’s bio:

In 2014, with global best hiring practices and true diversity hiring as her driving forces, Katherine, a neuro-diverse woman herself, launched Titan Management, a premier national talent acquisition and consulting organization which has since grown and expanded services to include education. In 2020, she launched the international online show and podcast Career Launch Live, which tackles everything from best job seeker practices and DE&I to employee relations and payday law, to help professionals across the globe.

Now, she is focusing even more heavily on promoting inclusion, particularly of the neuro-diverse community. She spends a great deal of her time speaking and educating on these topics and on her newest neuro-diversity and mental health focused show, Super Mania Show. Katherine has also designed and developed a patent-pending, anti-bias applicant tracking system, Titan ATS, with her team. It has been featured in Web Summit and HR Disruptor, as well as several publications.
