There’s power in partnerships.

Clicks x Gender Diversity
As industry leaders for gender diversity in IT recruitment, Clicks is an Alliance Partner, and only recruitment agency, supporting the #TechDiversity Foundation. We are proud to support an leading industry alliance committed to amplifying diversity awareness and their work in achieving a culture of inclusion through conversation, collaboration and action.
Clicks has run a series of public and company-specific workshops for senior decision makers around Australia. Our work in championing gender diversity within tech accompanies our sister company INDEX’s annual Gender Diversity in the Australian IT Market Report.The real-world data and analysis from this report educates hiring managers on the current market, the profile and needs of job seekers across IT who are women, delves into specific skill verticals, and provides a series of practical suggestions that can be easily implemented with immediate benefit.
Clicks’ approach to recruitment encompasses a DEI forward approach at all stages. We will explore and highlight flexible work options when taking a job brief, push back on position descriptions that are male-centric, request gender-balanced interview panels, address unconscious gender bias and more. We intrinsically prioritise non‑gender‑specific language when crafting our job advertisements to support inclusive hiring practices, and work hard to represent women who are returning to the workforce after parental leave.

Leading the Way in Neurodiversity Recruitment
It is estimated that 20% of the world’s population exhibits some form of neurodivergence. In Australia, the unemployment rate for neurodiverse people is 34%. Clicks is committed to helping employers understand, value, and include, the unique skills and capabilities of neurodivergent people.
Clicks has pioneered a program called Front of Mind. This is a channel for neurodivergent candidates to find meaningful employment in the tech sector across Australia.
Many leaders of business are unaware of the competitive advantages of neurodiverse employees. Compared to neurotypical people, neurodiverse workers are: 92% more productive, they learn tasks 48 times faster, yet they experience 6 times more unemployment.
