With respect, isn't illegal to declare a preference for a gender, sexual orientation, or race in a job posting in California?
- jordigh 11y agoInviting or encouraging a particular vastly underrepresented demographic isn't the same as saying that they're preferred over any other demographic. There's good evidence that just saying "women welcome!" (or any other underrepresented demographic) is a good way to reduce the huge gap between men and women hires by numbers.
- methodover 11y agoBut, they are doing more than just inviting/encouraging, right? They said that they have 40% women and want to take that number to 50%. Isn't that not declaring a preference for women?
