Companies looking to make your hiring more diverse, please don't go nagging your potential candidates to apply because "We are looking to increase the percentage of women in our company". It's incredibly insulting and degrading, and then they wonder why the women don't respond to their recruitment emails. Same apply to any other minorities I imagine.
Hiring practices are pretty random garbage anyway. I don't belive they necessarily find the best fit, best skills or anything else.
Thus bypassing a messed up system that doesn't even get what it wants, simply isn't egalitarian (or whatever word we want to use here), doesn't seem so bad.
It would also add to your diversity, even if the categories won't be race and gender.
Last job forced me out since I couldn’t commit to being in office 100%
Most Every job I apply for asks if you have a disability. If I say yes or decline to stAte. 100% chance I get passed on. Weeks later job still open. If I say no Disability then a good 50-75% call me. My skill set is awesome and in demand.
Highly frustrating
