Convergence Media, Inc, has launched Diversity Advantage Blog

Miami, FL October 4, 2006 --Convergence Media, Inc, has launched Diversity Advantage, (www.multiculturaladvantage.net) a blog designed to keep employers, recruiters, diversity councils, consultants and others working with diversity staffing issues informed about the latest trends and resources available for those striving to develop and maintain a productive diverse workplace.

"We noticed that despite the abundance of recruiting blogs, there was a dearth of diversity staffing coverage in the recruitment blogshpere", said Tracey de Morsella, editor of Diversity Advantage. "Since we knew that employers were actively seeking out this information, we decided to fill the void."

Diversity Advantage is a collaborative effort, featuring the work of over 50 experts in diversity, staffing and employment law. Topics covered include: business case for diversity, getting management buy-in for diversity initiatives, global diversity, board diversity, metrics, diversity recruitment marketing, EEO/ Affirmative Action, immigration, college recruiting, recruiting bilingual candidates, multicultural teams, mature workers in the workplace, bias in the interview and selection process, training, diversity and corporate career sites, diversity referrals, working with executive search diversity specialists, diversity sourcing and using career events for diversity staffing.

The blog has been launched with over 100 posts. Readers are provided with one to four news stories, commentary, case studies, practical advice and interviews every business day. Visit Diversity Advantage at: (www.multiculturaladvantage.net). For more information, call 305-407-3803 or email
