  • Recruiting College Talent with Disabilities: What Works, What Doesn’t, and Why

    As organizations compete for early career talent, college students and recent graduates with disabilities remain one of the most overlooked talent pools. Many employers are eager to hire this emerging workforce but struggle to build meaningful campus connections, create accessible recruiting experiences, and retain new hires once they join the organization.

    Drawing on insights from NOD research, this session explores practical strategies for strengthening disability-inclusive recruiting and creating workplace cultures where early career talent can thrive.

    SPEAKERS:
    • Lorena Chelaru | Human Resources & Operations Manager, NOD
    • Margaret Ling | Senior Partnerships Manager, NOD

    SESSION FOCUS WILL EXPLORE:
    • Why students with disabilities remain an underutilized source of early career talent
    • Practical ways to create more accessible recruiting, interviewing, and internship experiences

    Closed captions will be available via Zoom.
