How do you know? I'm curious because it seems like you'd have to have a spot on the job application for applicants to indicate their race and you'd need to exclude a "prefer not to answer" option in order to be confident about this.
- Talyen42 8y agoNo, but someone's name + linkedin profile (almost always included) tends to give it away 90% of the time. Sometimes you don't know, sure, but usually you do. Just like gender. We didn't ask, of course.
- paulddraper 8y ago> How do you know? Fair point. But even if another of the 297 of 1,000 were in reality black, the OP didn't know and the OP's point about not being part of the problem still stands. Right?
