Does signing up guarantee me a job offer?
While Niya's Social Mobility platform provides you with the best place to connect with organisations looking to hire diverse, underrepresented tech talent, we can't guarantee employment. We can guarantee access to best-in-class learning & development resources, events & workshops, and a community of like-minded individuals from within Niya's community.
Why should I create a profile?
Niya's talent platform provides you with a live, up-to-date profile advertised directly to employers actively looking to hire diverse and underrepresented digital talent. You will become a member of our growing collective from underrepresented communities around the world while also gaining access to a job board, exciting workshops, on-going business training and employer networking events. ALL FREE OF CHARGE!
How do I engage with employers?
You're skillset will be matched to employers who are looking for your profile. You can apply for the open roles posted by employers through Niya's Job Board, and the employers will contact you via Niya's Talent Platform afterwards. No more applying to opportunities and not hearing back from the hiring manager!
What is Niya's partnerships model?
Niya’s Social Mobility Partnership Network comprises 3 different partner types - Community Partners, Training Partners and HR Partners. Find out all about our different partnerships at niya.ai/partners.
How can an organisation partner with Niya?
Niya is always looking to partner with organisations who are dedicated to advancing social mobility. If you fall under any of our 3 partner categories you can sign up here (link the word here) to join the network. Any questions? Get in touch via the contact form here (link contact us page).
Will partners have their own profile on Niya's platform?
Currently we only support employer and candidate profiles. However, Niya’s Training Partners and HR Partners are featured on the member platform and Community Partners are listed as referrers at the point of candidate sign up. We are exploring the ability for all 3 partner types to have their own profiles and administration rights in the near future!
How does the matching of clients and candidates happen on the platform?
There are 3 ways that companies can be matched to candidates via Niya’s platform:
- Receive inbound applications through Niya’s job board
- Filter, screen and share outbound requests to candidates via Niya’s centralised talent marketplace
- See the candidate recommendations via your profile, featuring those who match your specific job criteria
What are the benefits of becoming a Niya member?
Niya enables you to make inclusion simple, to future proof your workforce and to become a social impact leader. By engaging with our global community of underrepresented people, you’ll be contributing directly to global charities and you’ll be tackling social mobility.
How does Niya differ from other Local Hiring Communities?
Niya simplifies inclusion by enabling you to collaborate with NGOs, community hiring partners, training providers, HR services and other DEI leaders through a single centralised network. We’re bringing all your stakeholders together, rather than throwing another into the mix.
How much does it cost to hire through Niya?
All companies can hire an unlimited number of candidates through Niya’s community as part of our core annual membership.
