and when they still hire mostly white men because they have the largest experience base on their resumes, by and large?

what then?

start scrubbing the resumes of experience from the better qualified?

The last thing the left wants is a color blind society because they don’t believe some groups can compete on a level playing field. Their own kind of racism.

I think that Canada will be overrun by miscreants from the third world before the long term effects of their stupidity take hold.

Looks like we are going to need two walls.

I hope it’s 100% white males that are selected. It would drive them insane! They would then have to go back and do their pick the race/sex winning lotto by intentionally trashing all of white men on the list . Hahahaha

They tried this before and everytime it actually decreases ‘diversity’ so I say go for it.

If they’re a private company they can (should be able to) hire whomever they want based on whatever criteria they choose.

They sink or swim based on the decisions they make.

Yes, if you are forced to hire people without due discrimination, diversity will increase, as will your troubles.

“Reality check: Does name-blind hiring help improve diversity?”

So the former John Smith, who recently had his name legally changed to Sir Adolph Hitler, may be the new hire for the law firm’s human resources department?

Not sure this is an improvement in the firm’s previous hiring process.

Why do we need to ‘improve diversity’? What does that even mean? Eradicate whites?

In my experience as a CAD Designer with many contract assignments or “gigs” under my belt, you best not routinely outperform any direct-hire employees if you want to make friends.

Will they also have blindfolded interviews?

If they removed all references to race and gender and only did merit based hiring, guess what the employee population would look like?

If the do hiring with no names, genders or photos they will hire a very qualified group of Asians and Anglos. That’s the dirty secret - a diverse workforce is often less intelligent than what they could have had.

It’s an interesting idea. If they run this experiment through a couple of hiring cycles, it would be interesting to see how the outcomes differ - if at all - from years in which the application-reviewers had a chance of knowing the sex and race/ethnicity of the applicants.

At the point of an interview, of course, the anonymity breaks down.

Might backfire on minorities. I’d laugh if all final people were all white if all qualified.

Might as well rewrite their entire resumes then, you know, to eliminate all bias.
