How did you accomplish this? Aggressive screening by gender at each phase of the hiring pipeline or just at the resume phase?

- angersock 9y ago> Aggressive screening by gender That strikes me as somewhat euphemistic.
- mattbillenstein 9y agoAssuming the pool is 80-90% male to start, to get to 50% I think one would have to be "aggressive" -- don't you?
- smt88 9y agoI think GP meant that "aggressive screening by gender" is another way of saying "discrimination". In the US, I think that's technically true -- you can end up with a very different pool of hires than applicants, but you're vulnerable to lawsuits forcing you to defend the merit of the ones who were hired.
