Lime Connect Canada's Corporate Recruitment Events for Experienced Professionals with Disabilities
Wednesday, June 6, 2012
Toronto, Ontario
Lateral recruiting is a key talent acquisition component for our partners.
Building on the success of our campus recruitment focus, Lime Canada's program that targets experienced, talented people with disabilities who are seeking career advancement has proven to be tremendously successful. Our partners BMO Financial Group, Google, IBM Canada, PepsiCo, RBC and TD Bank Financial Group have worked with Lime Canada to integrate disability as a full component of their overall diversity strategy, and value the intellectual capital that is found in people with disabilities. You won't want to miss these opportunities to network one-on-one and develop relationships with corporate execs and recruiters who are seeking to hire. We put talent first, and this is no "job fair."
And since one in five people globally has a disability, and 70% of non-campus disabilities being invisible - including ADD, dyslexia, depression, medical conditions and many others - all individuals with disabilities are encouraged to take advantage of this opportunity.
Our corporate partners and candidates have realized a great deal of hiring success at these events, and receptions for experienced candidates are hosted in Toronto and Vancouver in both the spring and fall. The next event is:
