The problem

Hiring gaps that held the team back

Icon primary
No formal hiring process

MeetEdgar relied heavily on informal referrals, which led to inconsistency and limited access to a broader, more diverse candidate pool.

Lack of DEI integration

Diversity, equity, and inclusion were not part of the company’s hiring strategy, leaving opportunities for bias and underrepresentation.

Need for a strategic recruiting approach

Without a structured plan, the team struggled to attract, assess, and hire talent aligned with their evolving goals and values.

The solution

A strategic hiring plan with DEI at the core

Perfeqta developed a comprehensive DEI-focused talent acquisition strategy for MeetEdgar, covering messaging, job descriptions, interview preparation, onboarding, and internal communications. The team was also equipped with tools to regularly track progress and maintain an inclusive workplace.

Key deliverables included:
  • A structured recruitment program and onboarding process.
  • A diversity internship program to expand access to early-career talent.
  • Recurring recruitment audit framework.
  • Data collection tools to measure candidate experience.
  • KPIs and performance review guidelines to track long-term employee success.
