P&G works hard to attract, recruit, retain and develop minority talent. Over the past five years, we have doubled the number of women and US minorities at the vice-president/general manager level.
Our intent is to develop all employees to their full potential through on-going professional and personal support, internal and external support systems and through on-going training and relationship-building within the company. For more information, review some of our resources.
There are numerous support systems, networks, and organizations both internally at P&G and externally that are created to make it easier for Hispanics to focus on their careers and integrate their personal life. (links opens in new window)

Consortium for Graduate Study in Management (CGSM)
CGSM is an alliance of the leading American business schools in partnership with the corporate community, is to encourage and enable the largest possible number of the best and the brightest African American, Hispanic American and Native American college graduates to pursue successful careers in management.

National Society of Hispanic MBA’s (NSHMBA)

National Hispanic Business Association (NHBA)
NHBA is a national network of students and alumni whose mission is to promote the development of undergraduate Hispanic business students through educational, professional, and networking opportunities to foster diversity, higher education, and the improvement of the Hispanic community.
Mentoring
There are many types of mentoring systems in place here – everything from business coaching to cultural mentoring. Every new employee is provided a business coach. This would be someone in their area of expertise who can help them with their career.
More importantly, we have Hispanic/Latino networks in place that are dedicated to making your recruiting and on-boarding process as easy as possible. A member of one of our Hispanic Networks will contact you once you are offered a position with P&G. Many times, you will already know the Network Contact from your interview visit with P&G. Your Network Contact will play a much different "mentoring" role than your business coach. He/She can provide cultural information to help you make a good decision on your P&G offer or provide information needed once you accept our offer to help get you and your family acclimated to P&G. We find that in many cases this is the most important aspect of mentoring. How do I find a church with Mass in Spanish, which school or neighborhood will make my children feel included, where can I find a Latino doctor or lawyer, are some of the questions the Network Contact can help you with. Network Contacts are all Hispanic/Latino volunteers who manage important businesses at P&G, but they know how important these questions are and want to assure they are answered.
So, what type of support can you expect at P&G? Great support that will help with your special needs or those of your family. Our charter is to help Hispanics succeed at P&G.
