Diversity & Inclusion (https://staffmeup.com/diversityandinclusion)
Staff Me Up’s mission is to solve for “exclusion by familiarity” in media and entertainment by bridging the network gap and opening up pathways for historically underrepresented people to be seen and hired. More often than not, industry professionals hire people they already know or via referrals from their colleagues. If these personal networks lack diversity, so will their crews; thus, it is our goal to work alongside media companies to expand their reach and help pave the way for equity and inclusion within the industry. By posting all available job opportunities on Staff Me Up’s platform, we can ensure the distribution of these opportunities to the entire Staff Me Up network (350,000+ users), our partner Diversity Advocacy Organizations and their members, Academic & Community Partners and more.
