Diversity & Inclusion in hiring

We want everyone to feel welcome, respected, and treated fairly throughout the entire employee journey, beginning with how we recruit and hire. That’s why we follow a structured process with competency-based interviews, transparent criteria, and hiring teams trained in Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion.
