How does that compare to overall percentage of women (and minorities for that matter) in the industry? Maybe it's not a problem with big, evil corporations that they don't want to hire woman, but there's simply 10 male asian candidates for 1 black female and the rest is statistics? I'm doing master of science right now and 10% of students are female. How can that later translate to 50/50 hired workers with master degree? Should we hire people from the street because diversity? Serious question, I don't understand what's up with diversity issue.
- kbart 11y agoExactly. I studied engineering and there were 3 girls out of 70-80 students. I don't get this forced diversion based on percentage (you must hire 50% women/minorities or else be flamed as sexist/racist), but where to get them?? This problem should be solved starting from foundation (children education), not stupid, irrational quotas.
- tptacek 11y agoThere is no company with more than 10 employees in the entire industry that has a "50% women/minorities" quota.
