DEI needs to DIE.
I have never seen a good candidate get turned away for being a minority. I have however seen bad candidates get extra chances for being a minority, and good candidates who are not a minority be reconsidered due to not being a minority. I personally opted out of interview processes for the last 2 years with how rascist and absurd hiring became.
Meanwhile, opposition to DEI within the company is a fast track to losing favor internally. It is incredibly hard to push back against without being the asshole. It's self reassuring nonsense that protects itself with its own undeserved smugness.
- kenjackson 4y agoI understand your frustration, but I think it misses the point behind attempts at DEI hiring. It's that if you don't push people to look outside their network, they will never even bring in the minorities to interview at all. I tend to agree -- if you have the stellar AA candidate in front of you, they tend to be treated pretty fairly. But what's far more likely, is that I send a referral for a colleague I know from another experience, who is likely white -- and we never even look at the other guys resume.
