Abstract:
ExxonMobil has adopted four strategies to ensure achievement of our diversity goals. Firstly, we have centralized our global Geoscience hiring to ensure we capture the top talent globally, and to facilitate effective global stewardship and accountability of results. Secondly, we have globalized the search for Geoscience talent, in order to achieve greater cultural diversity, find people with scarce skill sets, and to meet staffing needs for our local subsidiaries. Thirdly, we employ a broadband approach to attracting and evaluating candidates, ensuring our focus goes beyond petroleum-related programs and by participating in premier, non-petroleum events like the annual meeting of the GSA. Fourthly, we are making long-term investments in educational programs to address gaps between our ideal future hiring needs and existing candidate availability on campus.
