It’s a wrap for the third edition of Triumph — India’s Leading Diversity and Inclusion (D&I) Virtual Career Fair. When we started two years ago, our mission was simple. We wanted to connect underrepresented groups with inclusive workplaces in India. We’ve made significant progress towards that goal.
We believe our country is rich with diverse talent. There’s also a new crop of forward-looking, inclusive workplaces. All we needed was a platform to bridge the gap.
That’s where Triumph comes in. Our goal was to provide a platform where Women, LGBTQIA+ individuals, and Persons with Disabilities could connect with some of India’s top inclusive workplaces. We started by promoting the D&I Virtual Fair on social media and other channels, in a bid to raise awareness.
Alongside, we also strengthened our own internal processes, from adopting gender-neutral language to offering flexible working arrangements.
We also drafted some helpful guides for job seekers looking to work at Inclusive workplaces.
