Recruiting Indigenous lawyers follows the same processes and standards as with any other candidates, but when it comes to support staff, firms may need to take a more tailored approach.
Many Indigenous job seekers rely on community networks, Indigenous employment centres, or specialized job boards rather than traditional recruitment channels. Expanding outreach to include these pathways not only strengthens access to Indigenous talent but also demonstrates a firm’s commitment to inclusion and reconciliation in meaningful, practical ways.
Consider including your job postings for non-lawyers on these websites:
- Nation Talk – Job Board
- IndigenousCareers.org
- Aboriginal Job Board
- Indigenous Link
- AMIK Inc. – Professional Indigenous Engagement Services
