Agree, never accept a job in a company that favors minorities during a recrutement process. You'll never know if you have been accepted only for your skills or because they think that you will make them look better with you on the company picture.
- collyw 13y agoDoes that count if you are a white male?
- stephencanon 13y agoThe actual questions are: "How many women work for you? What’s your process for making sure you have diversity in other ways?" "What’s your retention rate of women over 1.5 years? Do you think you could’ve done anything differently to keep people who left?" Neither one of these necessarily has anything to do with "favoring" minorities (or women, who are a slight majority outside of southeast asia and the middle east). Rather, they can include doing things that encourage women to apply, ensuring that the office environment doesn't have major issues causing minorities to leave, etc. No favoritism required. Companies want to do these things because they help them find and retain good employees who their competitors may miss. I want my employer to do them (as a straight ivy-educated white male) because I want my co-workers to be the best possible, not just the best of the set of people who are able to ignore some awful brogrammer office culture (for example).
