It’s not that. We know that in most professions there’s no reason to assume that they should have a preferred gender. This means that even if pool of candidates is 99:1, that 1 candidate must have equal opportunities for employment. And that means no pre-screening through targeted ads.
- rpdillon 1y agoWhy does it mean that?
- unparagoned 1y agoSo say a school has funding to find 10 candidates for a job using the biased algorithms. Are you saying it’s best to force the school to use an algorithm such that they only find 5 with it still unlikely that any of those 5 are of a different sex. In effect forcing schools to hire a worse member of staff(due to reduced candidate pool.)
