As we see it—a legal recruiter who specializes in working with diverse candidates and the global head of diversity recruiting at an Am Law 100 firm, respectively—firms can and must grapple with these challenges, adapting their strategies and reaffirming their commitment to building a talented, diverse workforce. It's not just the right thing to do; it's a business imperative.
