Jo Major, Founder of Diversity in Recruitment & Co-Founder of Inclusive Recruitment Foundations, DEI Training for Recruiters and Hiring Managers issues a challenge for more care around recruitment decisions. Want to know what the most commonly misused term in hiring is? Culture fit.

A successful recruitment partnership along with an embedded inclusive culture, especially for local authorities, must reflect the diversity of the communities they serve. Studies by McKinsey and Forbes underscore the importance of diverse management teams in developing effective business strategies. This is crucial in local government, where leadership should embody the community’s diversity.

Abstract Although the history and settlement of European immigrants in the United States has been well documented and commented upon, there is a paucity of data on the absorption of Latin populations to American life and little systematic investigation of the immigration-assimilation process in general. The influx of Cuban refugees into the United States since Castro’s revolution provides an opportunity to study the adaptation of Latin American immigrants to American society.
