Multiple dimension of Google's hiring process have been revised as they found they were getting sub-optimal results from the usual kind of "hiring people like me" approach.
For example, it used to be a good bet that men made better orchestra musicians. Until they made auditioners take off their shoes and play behind a screen. You can't detect that bias without trying very hard to wash it out. If men were substantially ALL of the successful orchestral musicians, it would of course look like a completely justified "bias."
