Attracting Talent
We seek the best talent from all sources – leading universities, business connections, trade associations, national diversity conferences, partnerships to hire veterans, and referrals from our own employees.
ERGs
Our ten Employee Resource Groups (ERGs), with nearly 100 chapters throughout North America, represent the strength of BASF and provide a convenient way to network, build knowledge and skills, and learn about market and customer needs.
Approximately 8,000 employees – 40% of our workforce in the region – participate in BASF’s employee resource groups that celebrate and promote diversity, helping to make inclusion a hallmark at BASF.

You can be confident knowing that BASF provides both flexibility and support for the whole you.
Veterans
BASF Corporation - A Military Friendly Company
The qualities that veterans possess - discipline, teamwork, attention to detail, integrity, and leadership - are the qualities we look for in our employees.
We provide a safe and reliable working environment that appreciates the vast range of experiences that veterans bring with them. We aim to provide veterans, and all of our employees, with assignments and roles that are equally challenging while providing the opportunity for growth and advancement.
