Imagine you have a pool of 10 candidates from a minority group and 100 white males. Only 20% from each group are qualified enough. If you need to hire 5 people and want them to be from the minority group, you end up hiring 2 qualified engineers and 3 - not so much. Congratulations, you've met your diversity quota. Also, the condional probability of a minority engineer being underqualified is 3/5 now, but this number is declared racist.
