I discover this exact set of text on multiple companies' HR postings:
"We don't look for individuals who fit the culture, but those who will continue to add to the culture.
We encourage everyone to apply, especially those individuals who are underrepresented in the industry: people of color, LGBTQI+ community, women, individuals with disabilities (both seen and unseen), veterans, and people of any age or family status. "
It almost seems to be an exact copy from one playbook though these are on a number of different small companies' websites. My first guess is that this is taught in industry seminars to HR, and it feels like a religious creed.
However, what happens is the exact opposite of the stated intent - they screen out white American males, as I learned by hard experience. See comments below.
HR is one of the greatest examples we have of modern large scale conspiracy performed in the open. We see mega business taking the lead on brain training upper management and all other related fields to produce a tight knit control over what is right and just in the business world, this has been going on for a long time.
Meanwhile at all the meetings they all circle jerk how they look to own the channel with vertical marketing.
Going back to HR, they are the front runners on the brainwash and demands, so what we see is globally the same system deployed time after time amongst all the business producing the new world.
So there is basically a large manual somewhere, that they break up and reword slightly and redeploy.
HR sluts are one bad decision away from going back to serving tables. Easy to control
A buddy of mine is boss-level at a international finance company. He says that every new job has a requirement of interviewing at least two women/minorities (basically the nfl roony rule). If they don't find any good candidates they have to get a waiver to hire a white male. They can't keep women on the payroll because the whole industry constantly poaches women from the competition.
I post, having gone through some number of fruitless applications the last few months. EVERY interview I got had only managers of foreign nationalities (the tech teams are all foreign - Indian or Chinese). And the bias in HR people is kind of disconcerting - my last interview had the HR rep sit in - her name was LaTisha X. What can a white guy expect from someone with that kind of name judging them? And she blanked her video and just sat there listening but asked nothing.
Deep in this last company's website it had the liberal SJW-oriented phrases I listed here. For the hell of it I did web searches of the phrases and discover the exact same catch phrases repeated all over. The thing is, and I am not grousing for the sake of whining, I'm finding so many jobs filtered by 'we need diversity and have to help under-represented people!' then implementing 'no white guys'.
There has been a flood of "Instead of hiring for culture fit, hire for culture add" advice to HR, which seems to be a mask for 'do social justice hiring'. Down and down we spiral.
Well the hidden lining is they will starve out soon after
Well, Six Sigma popped into my head. Maybe their "Black Belts" are the ones who do this to ostensibly "adapt to culture". Probably have all sorts of models and data to support "minority" hires, but it obviously goes deeper than that.
Six Sigma just has a "hierarchy" that would make it easy to implement "forward thinking policies" in a lot of places, fast. If not them, some other HR or solutions company.
comes thru ESG corporate policy and legal policy. companies have to comply to get ((blackrock)) investments, or just be listed (soon). i've been seeing 'human resource' departments being renamed 'human capital' which is hilarious/terrifying/orwellian.
I've noticed the same thing. The latest is to advocate for opportunities and inclusion for women an minorities in every day setting such as during meetings. Why not advocate for everybody? It's discriminatory.
