Many job ads ask for 'recent experience' which arguably discriminates against women, who are more likely to take time out of work due to maternity leave/caring responsibilities, and/or disabled people, who are more likely to have recent gap in CV due to an accident or illness.

One of the (many) reasons I adore @JoFundraising is the way she communicates in such an honest, real & unequivocal way...
“A revolution is needed. We need to unlearn what’s considered normal recruitment practice, because to be perfectly honest, it is shit.”
🔥😍🔥

So many amazing things to share from the last Meet Up...we've had to split it into two blogs! Here's the first, the second one is coming soon. Big thanks again to @Pollysymondson 🙌
Check out the discussion topics we covered at last weeks Managers Meet Up all about #EthicalRecruitment and small steps you can take to improve your #Recruitment even if you aren’t in total control. Huge thanks to @Pollysymondson for providing her insight! link.medium.com/3NNvgBnzSib

Researching for a @managersmeetups blog on recruitment, from a random sample of 5 #fundraiser JDs on @CharityJob paying £24-27k the roles require an ave of 23 attributes/skills/experience. 79% considered 'essential'. WHY? Stop searching for that mythical perfect fundraiser 😩

Morning #FundraisingTwitter! @JoFundraising and I are looking to share some great examples of amazing things/changes to ways of working that have happened in community fundraising *because* of the pandemic. What's been your favourite, but unexpected, change and why?
