- fche 9y agoProof for what? Smaller number of available women? That's obvious. That if larger companies hire the best of them, the remaining supply/quality will shrink? That's obvious too.
- dguaraglia 9y agoNo, that there's a hard number that Google recruiters are supposed to achieve (50% seems to what I've seen repeated around here.) Does anyone have any actual proof that Google is aiming for 50% or to represent the general population 1-1?

Number goals are unlikely to be published for obvious liability reasons.
