Well if nothing it's a slight hack in the experiment she pulled except she didn't appear to end up with a job out of it. But she did seem to prove that monster is lying when they say the "diversity" options won't hurt you.

Also be aware in your company maybe? There are good people out there but maybe HR is "misfiltering" them for some reason.

Again, it wouldn't be a wild assumption to assume this problem in the tech industry and it's a signal that small enterprising startups might be able to scoop some better candidates because other companies have sadly stupidly passed on them.
