## When to activate

- Auditing candidate pipeline for diversity representation
- Sourcing from underrepresented talent pools
- Reviewing job descriptions for inclusive language
- Setting diversity targets and tracking progress
- Partnering with diversity-focused organizations

## When NOT to use

- For quota-based hiring decisions
- For final candidate selection (merit-based)
- For compliance reporting to regulators

## Instructions

1. **Audit current pipeline.** Break down applicants by demographic (where legally permissible) at each funnel stage.
2. **Identify drop-off points.** Where do underrepresented candidates exit: application, screen, interview, offer?
3. **Review job descriptions.** Scan for gendered language, unnecessary requirements, and exclusionary criteria.
4. **Source from diverse channels.** Identify 5+ platforms, communities, and organizations for underrepresented talent.
5. **Set pipeline targets.** Aim for 40%+ diverse candidates at interview stage (Rooney Rule minimum).
6. **Track and report.** Weekly pipeline diversity metrics: application rate, pass-through rate, interview rate, offer rate.
7. **Recommend interventions.** If pass-through rate disparity >15%, investigate process bias at that stage.

## Example

```
Pipeline Audit — Senior Engineer Role (Week 1-4):
Applications: 120 total, 45 diverse (37.5%)
Screen Pass: 40 total, 12 diverse (30%) ← DROP-OFF
Interview: 15 total, 5 diverse (33%)
Offer: 3 total, 1 diverse (33%)

Action: Screen stage shows 7.5pt disparity. Review screening criteria for bias.
