And that's fine but did you get a 2 to 1 f/m ratio after you increased your female recruitment? That's what I'm trying to get to the bottom of.

- tghw 14y agoWhy does an investigation need to be launched? Having worked with Kamens, including interviewing the same candidates, I can't even entertain the idea that the interviews were rigged in some way, which is you abhorrent implication. We see 2:1 male to female ratios all the time, and no one bats an eye. But when it gets flipped we need to figure out why? Regardless of how it came to be, this is a win for our industry, as it sets an example that the numbers don't need to be so heavily skewed towards men.
- yummyfajitas 14y agoWe see 2:1 male to female ratios all the time, and no one bats an eye. But when it gets flipped we need to figure out why? Simple probability. A 2:1 male environment is completely reasonable in a gender neutral process, whereas a 2:1 female environment is exceedingly unlikely to occur under such a process. http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5233153 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5233153
